Lying at the very top of Europe, Finnmark is the northernmost part of Norway that reaches around Sweden and meets Finland. This is the heart of Norwegian Lapland, where Karasjok is the cultural and political seat of Sami life. Though Norway's biggest county by size, Finnmark has the fewest people. Alta, the biggest city with just 17,000, is called the Town of Northern Lights for its great views of the phenomenon. Alta Museum is largely devoted to local rock carvings from thousands of years ago.

What a magical experience to stay at Wild Caribou at their dome tent! The bed is amazing comfortable, and the dome is very delicatly decorated. To sit and enjoy the beautiful nature and relax was so tranquil and amazing. We had such a good time meeting the dogs, cuddeling and even feeding them! Will definetly come back in wintertime to go sleeding. The stay was completed by a delicate and tasty breakfast in the dome the next morning, with lots of good food and even fresh eggs from their own chickens.

The workshop is located in Sapmi park in Karasjok, alongside many other exciting local attractions. The heart and centre of the glasstudio is the furnace, where the hot, glowing mass of molten glass is lovingly blown and crafted into cold, hard and beautiful glass products while you watch. All the glass in the sales galler is made right here. Want to try glassblowing yourself? Contact us for bookings, and we'll help you blow your very own ornament or drinking glasses!
