There is a lot to do at Salotalo.  You can ramble along the guided nature trail, which passes through surrounding forests.  Along the trail you can exercise on the equipment provided, or pick berries and mushrooms.

On the Salotalo site there is an outdoor volleyball and badminton court and there is plenty of room for other games as well.

 
You can row out onto Lake Hanhijärvi with Salotalo’s rowboat.  Take one of the fishing rods with you, as Ahti, the ancient Finnish water-god, might be feeling generous!

You can dive into the lake to cool off on a sweltering summer afternoon.  Or test your mettle and go swimming in the winter through a hole in the frozen lake!

 
To round off your day you can relax in one of the saunas.  In summer you can enjoy Finland’s famous Midsummer Sun, and spend the evening sitting around a campfire with good company and good food.

Salotalo food is prepared from local ingredients.  For example the bread, meats and cheeses are bought from local bakeries, smoke houses and dairies.
