Sámi experiences with ATV, lavvu and joik
Hættas Opplevelser is a local operator in Guovdageaidnu that invites guests to experience Sámi culture and nature on the Finnmark plateau up close. A signature experience is the ATV trip from Kautokeino centre to a lavvu by Naibešjávri, where traditional Sámi food is served while guests hear stories and joik. With around 10,000 fishing waters in the area, ice fishing expeditions are also arranged, often to Suohpatjávri, from December to May — combined with a fire and coffee on the ice. The experiences convey living Sámi tradition in one of Norway's most distinctive inland landscapes. Contact us for seasonal information and registration.
