Überblick
Reindeer herding and ice fishing have been part of life in Sierijärvi for hundreds of years — try both.
SieriPoro is an authentic Lappish reindeer farm by Lake Sierijärvi, about 15 km from Rovaniemi. The family has herded reindeer here since at least 1800 and today looks after more than 200 reindeer of all ages.
First you ride a reindeer sleigh 2.5 km through the snowy forest. Then the guides take you onto frozen Lake Sierijärvi, show you how to drill a hole and fish through the ice — their own favourite hobby. You finish with hot berry juice and a Finnish pastry by the fire.
