Location:
The cabin is located far above the Arctic Circle in the small village of Pulju, 68km from Kittilä Airport. The popular Levi village and ski resort 50km away has good local amenities and excellent ski slopes for downhill skiing and snowboarding. The cabin is located by a lake just 30m from the shore and 30m from the nearest neighbour. 

Levi resort offers a wide range of activities and safaris such as snowmobiling, reindeer and husky rides, horse-riding on Icelandic horses, hot-air ballooning, parasailing and kick sledging and therefore provides an ideal day trip destination. In December, a Santa Claus Safari for example is not to be missed! 

Pulju Wilderness Area covers 614km² and consists of fells, tree-covered hills and swamps that fill with cloudberries, lingonberries, blueberries and mushrooms in late summer and autumn. 

Reindeer herding is one of the main livelihoods in the Area and you may well see reindeers during your visit. Wolverines, bears, lynxes, wolves, owls, hawks, eagles, capercaillies, stoats, minks, weasels and otters also inhabit the Area. 

The nearby 1020km² Pallas-Ylläs Fells National Park is the third largest national park in Finland. The park is a varied mixture of fells, woods and swamps and is said to have the cleanest air in Europe. 

The network of signposted walking and hiking trails covers a total of 320km, majority of which allows you to admire the majestic fells in the horizon (the highest fell in the park towers at 807m). Reindeer, bears and moose are common in the park, while wolves, wolverines and lynxes are occasional visitors.
