Smoked Salmon and Sauna Experience in Lappish Wilderness

You will be welcomed by our friendly guide, who will introduce you to the traditional Sámi way of hot-smoking salmon and explain each step from A to Z. You’ll begin by learning how to build an Arctic fire — and then make it yourself, a fun and memorable activity our guests always enjoy. Next, we’ll prepare the metal smoking box and get it ready for a salmon fillet freshly sourced from Inari lake. You’ll discover how this special hot-smoking technique works, very different from the cold smoking you may know. Once the salmon is ready, you’ll enjoy it in a warm atmosphere with ingredients chosen to highlight its flavor. After the meal, you’re invited to continue the experience with our traditional sauna — and perhaps step into the snow under the Northern Lights! You’ll spend a memorable evening at Muotkan Ruoktu in Muotkantunturi National Park, a place known for its traditions, landscapes, and welcoming spirit. The entire experience is offered in small groups and at a tranquil pace so you can fully enjoy the magic of Lapland.
