About this activity

Join a great guided trip from Rovaniemi to the Ranua Wildlife Park to see and discover all the Arctic animals: polar bears, wolves, predatory birds, otters, musk oxen, wolverines, lynx, minks, etc.

Spotting wild animals is very difficult and unlikely as the Taiga forest is very wide and dense. This tour then gives you the opportunity to see most of the animals of the Arctic and other cold regions, and learn more about them.

The Ranua Zoo is also part of different European programs of protection, and offers a recovery place for some injured animals.

Buffet lunch in the restaurant is also included in the tour.
