The park is Lapland’s leading tourist attraction for families, groups with children and animal-lovers all year round. The park is also part of different European programs for the protection of endangered species.

This private trip departs from Rovaniemi where your guide will pick you up at your hotel. They will then drive you to Ranua wildlife park, and will accompany you along the 2.5km gentle walk into the snowy forest that takes you from one animal habitat to another.
