Vähä-Huituri rental hut is located at the northwestern end of Bothnian Bay National Park on Vähä-Huituri Island. The island cannot be reached by land, and there are no regular departures to it. Take note of the ice situation when heading out to Vähä-Huituri island in winter. Visit the Finnish Meteorological Institute's website (ilmatieteenlaitos.fi) to find out about current ice and weather conditions. There is also a sauna in the yard.

A rental hut is a place for an overnight stay that can be rented for only your use.

Terms of reservation for huts

Reservations

Tips for a smooth booking

Make all reservations under the same order if you book several huts or other sites for the same trip. According to the reservation terms, the minimum refundable amount per order is €30.
Make reservations under separate orders if you book huts or other sites for several different trips. Managing separate reservations is easier, and you will receive a separate due date for each one, 14 days before the start of the reservation.

Notes for all bookers

The reservation day for shared rental huts, rental huts and other rental structures begins at 2 pm and ends at 12 noon.
Keep the order confirmation of your paid reservation with you. Check the information related to keys in the "Keys" section (located halfway down the page).
By following the hut etiquette, you ensure that the use of hut is smooth. Learn about the hut etiquette (luontoon.fi).

Notes for corporate customers

A foreign company can place an order in the company's name only as an unregistered customer.
When a company regularly takes its customers to destinations with hiking infrastructure maintained by Metsähallitus, it must have a cooperation agreement. Read more in the information bank for entrepreneurs.

Other things to keep in mind

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.
