Would recommend this place to rent a snowmobile. Service is 5/5, snowmobiles 5/5 and all the outfits incl shoes, helmets, etc are ???????? Snowmobile was even for a woman a good choice to rent. Safe and clearly marked routes around Ruka were ????????

Suuri olutvalikoima, viihtyisä pubi, ystävällinen henkilökunta. Ainoa puute, että saksalaisia lagereita harvoin tynnyreissä. Big selection of beers, cosy pub, friendly staff. The only complaitn: german lager beer is a rare visitor.

Karhunkierros

Reviewed By 755piias - Massu, Estonia

Breathtakingly beautiful hike in autumn! Did 82+ km hike with my friends in late September - colourful sceneries, varied landscape , friendly people. Very well marked trail, suitable for beginners yet not too easy. The hardest terrain is from Porontimajoki to Ruka (which was the last leg in our case) but it's also the most beautiful if it's happen to be good weather. The trail isn't too wild and meets number of smaller trails so you'll probably meet any kind of hikers on your way. Take a tent or a tarp with you 'cause the huts may be full. We would like more campfire sites, especially crowded was the last night in Porontimajoki. It's nice to have a fire on a wet chilly night. But we are all very happy with this experience.

A windy beach, but the water was surprisingly warm. Lots of people on a sunny day. Loads of ice cream kiosks. An interesting lighthouse. A must when you visit Oulu in summer.
