Who they are

The Inari Saami are an indigenous people traditionally settled around Lake Inari, in the far north of Finland. Distinguishing themselves from other Saami groups through their own distinct language and a way of life historically centered on lake fishing and hunting, they preserve a rich cultural heritage that endures and thrives in the Arctic environment.
