This is a unique possibility to sleep next to the beautiful River view at the Arctic Circle . The cozy and warm Yurt is located 20 minutes from Rovaniemi centrum, and is right next to a big river. Yurt is decorated with beautiful Scandinavian elements and it is warm even the weather is cold outside. This is a place for thinking and relaxing and enjoying pure and simple things. We think this is something everyone should experiment at least once in a lifetime! We are far away from the city lights, so in winter time you can see auroras and stars through the roof dome and you do not need to book aurora safaris to see the northern lights. In summer the dome brings midnight sunlight inside. You can book a Finnish wood heated Sauna for the evening. There is a new shower and toilet building outside the yurt for all yurt village visitors to share. Phone and wifi are available, so if you feel too quiet or alone, you can get contact to outer world. Each yurt has a unique boutique style decoration. What makes our yurts even more awesome; You can purchase any decoration or furniture from the yurt to be yours. So while relaxing and enjoying the athmosphere, you can buy gifts and souvenirs at
We want to share our passion on new ideas and experiencing something new. With us You can choose whether you want to stay in Yurt in wilderness with amazing forest hill view or in Yurt next to the river.
This place is a beautiful spot next to the river. This is a perfect spot for hiking in forest, watch northern lights far away from the city lights or just enjoy the cozy yurt. In summer time you can see many birds, like swans flying over the river. Winter is good time spotting rabbits, fox and other Finnish animals.
