Wilderness Hotel Muotka

Official Rating

‘Romantic Northern Arctic – Forest Location – Exciting Snow Activities’

Wilderness Hotel Muotka is one of four accommodations in the Wilderness Hotels and Safaris collection. The most romantic of the group is Muotka, located deep in the Taiga forest, adjacent to Urho Kekkonen National Park. With no light pollution it is ideal for aurora viewing and snow adventures. Accommodation is in stylish rustic rooms - some with private sauna. There is a traditional Lappish restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as drinks. The main attraction here is the experience, and there are great activities on offer involving snowmobiles, reindeer, skis and snowshoes.
