About Muotka Wilderness Lodge

Muotka Wilderness Lodge has undergone renovation and is full of warmth and relaxation. From the second you arrive, this lodge feels like home from home. As you enter the reception building you will be greeted by a warm fireplace which is located in the restaurant.

Guests can also relax at the small lounge and bar area with a refreshing drink or a snack. There is a sauna for both men and women as well as an outdoor fireplace, shelter and Sami kota hut.

Although Saariselka is a fantastic resort, it is geared more towards beginners and intermediates as well as snowboarders.

Saariselka is situated in the far north of Finnish Lapland, approximately 250km above the Arctic Circle. It is a small resort in the middle of nature with a small number of hotels and chalets. There are 200 km of well maintained cross country routes and 15 slopes altogether.
