Our Values
We believe in core values and principles below as the foundation for our excellence in our services.
Education
We are more than a service provider. We provide customers with services and a learning environment in order to assist them to assess, reflect and acquire local values and behavior which they see as being more effective for their and others’ long-term well-being.
Customer Centricity
We create services and experiences through a strong focus on customer needs. Our services and experiences are in line with customer values and find relevance in everyday life.
Authenticity
We live in Lapland. Pure nature, local culture and traditions, and all the natural phenomena are our lives.
Sustainability and responsibility
Our values are based on respecting the culture, nature, and environment of the area. We offer activities and experiences in the Ranua-Rovaniemi region in Lapland in a sustainable way.
Sustainability for us means actions such as:
The locations in Ranua provide silence, light pollution-free environments and the original nature with forests, lakes and space. We continue to support this environment.
Informing and guiding our guests on respecting local nature and following the “nature-etiquette” when being outdoors.
Offering services and activities through local partners and guiding where to buy, for example, local food ingredients or other local products.
