After your breakfast, you will visit the Sami Siida museum where you will learn about Sámi culture and the diverse nature of Northern Lapland.

After your visit to the Sami Siida museum, you will get a chance to meet and feed a reindeer. You will visit a real Lappish home where you will learn more about the essential role reindeers have in Lappish life.

At the Hostess' house, you will find out about the process of how traditional Sámi fur boots are made from reindeer hide and hear a personal and authentic account of what life is really like in the far north.

Have a rest this afternoon and, after dinner, get ready for a night hike commencing at 10pm. The midnight sun might keep you awake as it will be full daylight outside all night. With this midnight sun hike, the guide will take you to the top of Otsamo fell, where you can experience breathtaking panoramic views over the surrounding lakes and highlands. The 6km round-trip route is relatively easy but requires good basic physical fitness.

Remember to bring your own water bottles although your guide will offer you coffee or tea and a small snack in the wilderness hut at the summit.

Today you will visit a husky farm where you will meet 50 Arctic sled dogs, including Siberian Huskies, Greenland dogs and wolf dogs. Every dog has a special story, which the musher will be happy to share with you.
