Båtsuoj Sami Camp

TIME : 2016/2/19 0:35:36

To experience the life of the Forest Sami, visit Båtsuoj, where Tom and Lotta Svensson practise their traditional livelihood fulltime. You can watch the reindeer get lassoed, or stay overnight on reindeer skins inside a kåta (typical Forest Sámi log hut), learn about Sami shamanic practices, eat grilled reindeer and sip coffee cooked over a wood fire. Book visits in advance.

The Sami camp is near the village of Gasa, 17km north of the village of Slagnäs, on E45.
