We pre-booked a husky safari. When we arrived we were friendly greeted by Tiina, who moved here 15 years ago for her love for animals. The tour was amazing, some beautiful spots and we were introduced to every husky who was on our sled. Afterward we were invited in a Kami, which is a vert cosy stone house with a fireplace. We got some tea and cookies and she told us beautiful stories about the animals she had. Afterwards we got a tour around the farm and she told us about the artic animals. She has a wild pig, 26 huskies, 4 artic foxes, a gold fox, a cross fox, 2 racoon dogs and 2 Finnish goats! She is a vert friendly and warm person. She takes care of the animals very well. This is an absolute must visit when you are in Lapland!

My husband and I visited Wild Spirit park while on our honeymoon, we found the park by chance on a drive from Invalo to Lake Inari and found them on trip advisor when looking the park up online. Tiina was very responsive when I messaged on Facebook and was more than happy to accommodate a full tour of the park and her animals. Tiina knew each individual animal's story and is clearly very passionate about caring for them all - most are rescue. The tour was only €10 and we spent nearly an hour and half there including a break to warm by the fire. Such a lovely place and off the beaten track from the usual more expensive tourist attractions!
Thank you Tiina 🥰

We had a great visit to wild spirit park in Ivalo, it’s definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. It’s not an large place by any means but their are enough to see with Arctic foxes, snow dogs, a wild hog, goats and of course the sledding dogs that you can interact with. We went in early November and while there was snow it wasn’t enough to go sledding. That didn’t effect our overall experience though as the owner was thorough in explaining the stories of each of the animals there. We had a great time and at only a 10 euro donation to visit it’s probably one of the best values as far as experiences go. Plus you get the added benefit of knowing it goes to the cost of taking care of the park.

Wonderful little animal park that is worth a visit when up in Lapland. Currently there are Artic Fox, Raccoon Dogs, and sled dogs. Tour lasts about 30 minutes and you will follow the owner as she tells stories about the animals she cares for. Check it out!

After reading so many good reviews from different channels, we decided to book a visit with my husband. Due to the warm weather, the husky safari was not possible anymore. But we were introduced to all animals in the park and had chance to hear stories of them. The owner, Tiina, is so heartful and devoted to keep an excellent care of her animal friends. We were touched by this lady and her commitment. Because of the covid situation, the place is lacking for the visitors which means directly economical loss. We hope that she can continue her valuable mission so you can also do some donations, as we do as a godparent to lovely fur friends.

We were the first trip of the season and it was great! Only our family and the 6 beautiful dogs! We drove on a iced lake and snowy track.
So far from mass Tourism Tour!
After the 1h safari, Tiina offers a warm drink in a quiet place and we had a look of some wild animals saved from a fur farm.
Thank you for to sharing this moments with us.

Fantastic little place, well worth the entry fee - which goes straight back into the cost of caring for the animals. Tiina is knowledgeable and loves the animals and they her - you can tell by their reaction to her.
Do contact in advance to book though as the visits are limited.

The Wild Spirit Park is a wonderful, wonderful place where owner Tiina works true magic with poor animals she has mostly saved from unfriendly former owners. There are real arctic foxes which are too cute to be true, badger dogs, countless nice huskies of different, wild boar and many more. Tiina is a both a host and a guide and explains many of the animals stories which are truely heart warming. We were so touched by her dedication. Apart from this it is an ideal half day out but it is advisable to get in touch ahead of a visit to make sure there is time. Really, really worth the short hop north from Ivalo village, five minutes in a taxi is all it takes. The experience surpasses many pre-planned safaris and the like. Amazing and a good cause too! Please don't change a thing.

This is an incredible sanctuary for Finland's creatures. Our host was very knowledgeable and there was no way you could miss the love and care that she has for the Wild Spirit Park. All the animals are super well taken care of, there is warm fire in the hut toward the back and you get to see all the beautiful animals. I especially liked the arctic foxes and Romeo and Juliet :)

Hi Cristal,
we visited park in july this year.
For the opening time we are not sure, but for sure :) you can easily reach park with car.Entrance and parking is alongside the road in you can't' miss it (around 3-4 km from Rovaniemi toward Ivalo)
Lady who owns park is very nice and she is running this park with heart.
The park is not pretty big (visit cane take you about 1 - 1,5 hour) and you can see some arctic animals such as foxes, wolverine and wild pigs (Romeo and Juliet) and of course Husky dogs. There is also i Hunting cottage with authentique ambient (mus horn, dear horn, dear hide....)
During the WInter season they organize dog slide trips to the wildness.
