The People Behind Aurora Horses
Aurora Horses is built by people who share something deeper than a workplace: a lifelong love for horses and a genuine commitment to caring for them.
Our team is connected by trust, friendship and years of experiences shared in the stable, on forest trails and through the changing seasons of Lapland. We have celebrated unforgettable moments together, faced demanding days side by side and learned that the best results are achieved when people support one another. Everyone brings their own skills and personality, but we are united by the same values: kindness, responsibility, professionalism and respect.
For us, horses are never simply part of the business. They are our trusted colleagues, teachers and much-loved members of the Aurora Horses family. We know their individual personalities, recognise their smallest signals and understand that genuine partnership must be earned through patience, consistency and care. Their well-being guides every decision we make.
This connection can be felt in the experiences we offer. We want every guest to feel safe, warmly welcomed and included—not as part of a crowd, but as someone sharing a meaningful moment with us. Whether we are guiding a peaceful ride through a snowy forest, preparing a Finnhorse for a traditional sleigh journey or simply spending a quiet moment together at the stable, we work with our whole hearts.
Behind every Aurora Horses experience is a close-knit team that believes in the power of horses to bring people together, slow us down and remind us of what truly matters. This is more than our profession. It is our passion, our way of life and a story we are proud to share.
Katri
Founder, Horsewoman and the Heart Behind Aurora Horses
For Katri, horses have never been merely a hobby or a profession—they have been a lifelong passion and an essential part of who she is. With 40 years of experience, she has built a deep understanding of horses founded on patience, trust and respect.
Katri is the founder and driving force behind Aurora Horses. Her vision has always been to create meaningful experiences where guests can encounter horses, Lapland’s nature and local traditions in an authentic and personal way. She believes that the most memorable moments are often the quietest ones: the sound of hooves on a snowy trail, the warmth of a Finnhorse beside you or the peaceful connection formed without words.
The well-being of the horses guides every decision Katri makes. She knows each horse as an individual and values their unique personality, needs and strengths. For her, a genuine partnership with a horse cannot be demanded—it is earned through consistent care, understanding and time.
Her warm hospitality, extensive experience and heartfelt love for Finnhorses are present throughout Aurora Horses. What began as Katri’s lifelong dream has grown into a close-knit family business and a place where people from around the world can experience the extraordinary bond between humans, horses and the nature of Lapland.
