Lapland’s nature pulsates with life The reindeer is an inherent part of Lapland’s nature and is one of the North’s favourite animals. The 200,000 strong reindeer stock is an essential source of livelihood for Lapland’s people.
The golden eagle can also be spotted in Lapland. The birch groves are home to other birds common in Lapland – the meadow pipit, the Lapland’s most common predator, the fox, roams the forests. Wolves and arctic foxes are rare. You can also come across bears in the forests of eastern Lapland or on the lower slopes of the fells. The most common bird of prey is the rough-legged buzzard. wheatear and the willow warbler.
Other northern birds include the snow bunting, the willow grouse and the Siberian jay. Birds found typically in the heaths of Lapland are the golden plover; by the rapids, the water ouzel; and in the peatlands, the sandpiper, the ruff, the crane and the bean goose.
Lapland’s nature is austere but beautiful The different parts of Lapland are clearly distinct. The south and the west are maritime, they have rivers and rich flora. Central and eastern Lapland are known for their tree-covered fells. Northern Lapland is more barren, and only stunted deciduous trees and bushes grow above the tree limit. The domes of the fells are bare and easy to cross. Pine, usually accompanied by lichen, dominates Lapland’s forests. Nature, forests, waterways and the landscape have had a profound effect on the lives of Lapland’s inhabitants. The shamans, who are also known to have dwelled in Lapland, based their beliefs on natural phenomena and the course of life and nature.

Guestbook
We had a brilliant holiday, the house is amazing the pictures on the website don't do it justice. What did we like: Everything, loved the way everything was modern, clean, functioned really well and made the holiday nice and easy. The sauna was brilliant. Location ? - Great. Easy to get to the skiing, plenty of walking areas, the bus was accessible. All good. Other feedback ? Awesome! Could only be topped if the house came with a snow mobile We'll be recommending the house to anyone that will listen Thanks for renting us such a brilliant house! Jen
The house was great, we all really liked staying there. it was much more spacious than we thought from looking at the pictures which we were really happy about. it is also really well furnished and has a lot of cooking equipment and dishes to cater for large crowds. Alot more than we were expecting to have. the house is in a really good location, its close to the slopes, and the fact that you can ski back home from the slopes is great. the house is out of the town which means that you are in a more peaceful area and closer to nature than if you were in the middle of the town, its also near to the south slopes which are quieter than the slopes in the middle of the town which allows for more relaxed skiing. It has easy access to the cross country ski and snowmobile routes which is great. overall the house was brilliant and would be delighted to come back and spend more time there. Regards Kieran
Our holiday was amazing! It was everything that you promised us and more. I didn't realise just how big the cottage was by looking at the photos. The cottage is located perfectly with access to the whole mountain from the door step. It has all the modern facilities which was just another added bonus. It was an absolutly fantastic holiday and was worth every cent we paid for it. We got to see the northern lights, ride with huskys, ice fish and snowboard all within the Levi area. Thank you Jari, Luke
