Every day is a happening day
 

The Lapp village of Ylläs is located in a beautiful pine forest by the Ylläs fell, only about one kilometre away from the main road to Ski Center. The heart of the “village” is Restaurant Poro, built to imitate a sun figure used in the old Same people’s shaman drums. The building itself is made of wood and rock. In this atmosphere the delicious scents and tastes of the Lappish food can really be enjoyed. 
Father Christmas has got his own house next to the restaurant. In December one can spot the Santa and the elves almost daily working hard for the Christmas season. The house is then full of Finnish handicrafts.
We also have some activities planned for children and families. The elves, gnomes and earth spirits will lead the customers to the world of huskies, reindeers and Northern lights.

Husky rides

The Husky elf Nastyweather will tell you everything he knows about the Siberian husky dogs, after that everybody gets to pose with the dogs before heading out for a speedy two kilometres ride. The price will be 28 € for adults, 18 € for under 12 years of age.
