Your winter adventures start here
Meet the huskies, explore snowy forests or search for the Northern Lights. Pure Lapland activities start right at Metsähirvas, so you spend less time waiting for transfers and more time enjoying the experiences you came to Lapland for.

A special place, yours to explore
Explore snowy grounds, gather around an open fire or take a quiet break in our outdoor shelter. Our private beach and riverfront are reserved for staying guests. After dark, visit our favourite spots to watch for the Northern Lights. With clear skies and the right conditions, you may see them above the river.
Good food. A seat by the fire.
Enjoy a meal at Restaurant Saihu, a drink at the bar or a seat by the open fireplace in our lobby. Come in from the cold, share stories from your day and plan tomorrow’s adventures.
