Hannukuru Hannu shared rental hut is a demanding wilderness destination. The hut is not accessible during the thaw. The hut is located halfway along the Hetta–Pallas summer trail in Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park. The hut offers beds for hikers on this popular route. In spring, access may be possible via a maintained ski trail, but at other times, reaching it requires good navigation skills due to demanding and unpredictable weather conditions, with only a few hours of daylight during winter.
Peak times include Easter and the autumn´'ruska' season. The yard can become crowded, as it also attracts hikers making a single stop along the Hetta-Pallas summer trail. The shared rental hut has two sides, named Hanna and Hannu, with a total of 24 beds (12 in each side). The huts share a drying room equipped with a wood stove.
A shared rental hut is a reservable place for an overnight stay where you can book a paid bed for 1–2 nights.
The reservation day for shared rental huts and rental huts begins at 2 pm and end at 12 noon.
Bring along your invoice and proof of payment to the hut.
The use of huts and other structures in business operations requires a permit from Metsähallitus (metsa.fi).
Reservable huts are meant for those travelling by foot, skis or other means of physical movement (not motorized vehicles).
Hiking and skiing groups of partner entrepreneurs in the national park can book shared rental huts on the Hetta-Pallas Hiking Trail between:
1 March and 30 April two times/entrepreneur
1 June and 15 October three times/entrepreneur
at other times no more than six times/entrepreneur.
