🛏️ Stay
Sámi guesthouse on the banks of the Tana River
The guesthouse offers accommodation spread across gammes, cabins and rooms. Each gamme is equipped with a kitchen, bedding and towels, a separate bedroom and living area, and can be heated with both electricity and wood. Stjernegammen serves Arctic delicacies based on local ingredients such as reindeer, salmon and berries, and the venue is equipped for courses and conferences. Salmon fishing in the Tana River is one of the core experiences - you can fish with a local guide right by the guesthouse, and river canoeing is also offered. Sámi experiences are central to the offering: consider ending your evening with grilled salmon and Sámi joik singing in an authentic lavvu. Other activities include fjord cruising with a traditional Nordland boat on Tana Fjord, mountain hikes with a local guide and snowmobile safaris on Finnmark plateau. Tana Bridge is approximately 20 km away.
