An evening wilderness adventure with a taste of Sámi culture
Come along for a wilderness adventure in Helgeland. With the moon and perhaps the glow of the Northern Lights illuminating our way, and equipped with headlights if needed, Hi North will guide you on a magical adventure! Sjåmoen is a recreation area at the threshold of the wilderness, situated a short distance from the town of Mosjøen. This site has been used by many generations of Sámi reindeer herders for gathering and sorting their flocks. Grateful to be away from the noise and light disturbances of the city, visitors often speak of experiencing a deep tranquillity at Sjåmoen. Your guide will equip you with snowshoes and then we’ll go on a short trek to our destination, a nearby lavvo. This tipi-shaped tent is a portable traditional dwelling that is used by the nomadic Sámi reindeer herders. Away from the lights of the city, you will be amazed at how many stars there are. If we’re lucky, we may even see the Northern Lights dancing across the skies above! Read More
