Terms of reservation for huts

Reservations

Before reservation

  • Creating a user account is worthwhile. As a logged-in customer, you do not need to pay for your reservation immediately. You can also cancel unpaid reservations yourself. Create a user account.

  • Tip: If you reserve huts for multiple trips, make separate orders for each trip. This way, you can choose to pay for each trip's reservation only 14 days before the start of the reservation.

After reservation

  • 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 entrepreneurs

  • 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.

Accommodation in the cabin for a maximum of 6 people. Guests exceeding the accommodation capacity can stay overnight at the nearby Haukanhieta camping area.
