UNIQUE ACCOMMODATION IN KAAMANEN, Inari
Giellajohka's location has housed accommodation for more than six decades. The place has been known in the past i.e. as Kiellatupa, which was a small oasis for hikers and travelers located here between the wilderness areas of Muotkatunturi and Paistunturi. We, the current entrepreneurs, have been operating in Giellajohka since 2016 and we want to develop the services of this unique place in a versatile way, thinking about the surrounding environment.
We have built new ecological cottages in the Giellajohka area, whose wall-sized windows have a beautiful view directly of the Kielajoki River and the northern sky, where the northern lights play during the dark months. If you are looking for a quiet and high-quality accommodation in Kaamanen, Inari, Finnish Lapland, we can say with a good conscience that your vacation will not be wasted here. :)
