A modest open wilderness hut is available year-round. A demanding wilderness destination.
The wilderness hut is situated 1 km east of the Hetta-Pallas Trail on the trail leading to Ketomella.
The open wilderness hut is a shared and free resting and overnight place for independent hikers (not for companies). You can stay in wilderness huts for one or two nights without a reservation. Be prepared for the possibility that there may not be enough space to sleep in the hut.
Facilities:
- Sleeping places for 8.
- Heating with a stove. Gas stove for cooking.
- No drinking water point. Water from natural sources must be purified before drinking.
- No waste management. Take your own waste out of the area.
- Bring your own cooking utensils.
- Pets are allowed in the hut only with the consent of other users.
- The wilderness hut is located close to the Näkkälä herding co-operative's reindeer fence and is therefore often used by herders.
