What's new

Arrival instructions

  • The shores of the island are shallow and rocky, so it is recommended that boaters moor at the excursion harbour, which is located at a distance of 1 km at the northern end of the island.

  • Read more about the area and more detailed arrival instructions on Nationalparks.fi.

Yard

Sauna, dry toilet, an open wilderness hut and some buildings from the fishing base in the vicinity.

Keys

The key is in a key cabinet on the hut wall. The cabinet is protected with a code. Instructions and the code are sent to you by e-mail after the payment.

Facilities

Heating and lighting

  • The hut has a wood-burning stove and firewood for heating. Please use firewood sparingly. Please note that it takes some time before the hut is properly warm.

  • The hut has no electricity. We recommend using a headlamp, which leaves your hands free to do chores around the hut. For safety reasons, candles must be burned on a non-combustible surface and constantly monitored.

Cooking

A gas stove and crockery.

Drinking water

  • There is no running water in the hut.

  • Bring drinking water with you. The water in the yard's well is not to be used.

Staying overnight

  • Bunk beds, mattresses, pillows and blankets.

  • Please bring your own linen or a sleeping bag.

Sauna

A separate builing for sauna.

Toilet

There is a dry toilet near the hut. Please bring your own toilet paper.

Waste disposal

There are no waste containers by the cabin. Visitors are advised to take their accumulated waste with them.

Metsähallitus follows the principles of litter-free hiking. Visitors are adviced to bring their own waste out of the area. Read more about hiking without littering (nationalparks.fi).

Other things to keep in mind

  • There are no accessible services in the hut.

  • Please clean the hut before you leave.

Safety

  • Although Finland has a broad network for mobile phones, there are some areas in the park without signal. If this happens try to climb to a higher place or go into an open area. Check the mobile network coverage with your mobile phone operator before your trip.

  • There are fire alarms at wilderness huts, but we recommend to bring a 9 V battery and/or your own travel fire alarm with you.

  • Read more about the area and its current information at Nationalparks.fi.
