The tour also includes a short walk to Roparneset, where you will visit an authentic Sámi settlement with turf huts and storehouses. Here, you will experience how Sámi traditions have survived and evolved in the face of modern times.
As an add-on, the tour can be wrapped up with a pleasant moment around the fire, where you can reflect on your impressions with a cup of freshly brewed campfire coffee.
Join us on a journey through Sámi history and culture!
