Location: Kautokeino Municipality, Norway.
Text by Kautokeino County Council.

 
In winter time and the arctic night with northern light and summer with constantly daylight and midnight sun, you can experience the nature at its most extreme; a winter night spent in lavvu (lappish tent), a summer evening at one of our numerous lakes fishing or reindeer race in Easter time.

Experience a different and exotic culture. The Sámi culture is vivid and authentic even in the modern society of to day. The famous Easter festival in Kautokeino is a yearly event with historical traditions. Easter was traditionally the time of year when Lapps from all over the Sapmi region congregate in the reindeer capital Kautokeino. The end of a long, cold and dark winter was celebrated and one took part in the religious feasts and the high season of weddings.
