  • We protect and support local nature and cultures.
  • When it comes to equipment, we try to fix what is broken and think sustainably when making new purchases.
  • We have actively participated in Finnish Sami Parliament’s project Culturally Responsible Sámi Tourism and follow its guidelines.
  • We have been awarded the Green Key Eco Label for hotel-restaurants in 2021.

We want everyone to feel welcome and celebrated for who they are. At Aanaar, we are LGBTIQA+ friendly and have zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind.
