Ranua Resort is an experiential ensemble
During our over 40 years of operation, we have vastly grown from where we started and today we are much more than a wildlife park alone; we have wonderful glass igloos on the shore of Ranuanjärvi lake, gorgeous holiday villas in the holiday village opposite the wildlife park, two camping areas, a serving restaurant and numerous different activities throughout the year. Ranua Wildlife Park was founded in 1983, and over the decades it has become the most popular family tourist destination in Lapland and the point of attraction in Ranua’s tourism.
Ranua Resort is cordial, experiential and responsible, and at the centre of everything we do is the customer, You.
You are warmly welcome to Ranua Resort as our guest!
