Ranua Zoo Wildlife Tour, BBQ Campfire & Lappish Delicacies｜Finland

Ranua Arctic Wildlife & Campfire Tasting Experience

Have you ever dreamed of seeing Arctic animals up close in an environment that reflects their natural world? Now you can.

Just an hour from Rovaniemi, Ranua Wildlife Park is home to Finland’s only polar bear and around 50 different Arctic and northern animal species, including arctic foxes, moose, snowy owls, lynx, brown bears and many others, all living in spacious forest enclosures that resemble their natural habitat. This is more than just a zoo — it is a true Arctic wildlife encounter that brings you closer to nature than you ever imagined.

Your guide will take you from Rovaniemi to Ranua with comfortable transportation. Once at the park, you are free to explore at your own pace. Walk along snowy forest paths and observe iconic animals thriving in winter conditions, while learning fascinating stories about how these species survive in the coldest climates on Earth.
