A winter wonderland
WHY GO?

Salla, a small town north of the Arctic Circle in Finnish

Lapland, has a terrain like no other. You’re transported to another world, affectionately referred to as the place ‘in the middle of nowhere’, and, as you touch down on a snow-covered runway at Kuusamo Airport without a building in sight, that’s exactly how it feels.

WHERE TO STAY

After just over an hour-and-a-half’s drive from the airport along winding, snow-laden, deserted roads, you’ll arrive at Holiday Club Salla. Stay in a Salla Villa – a modern, self-catering apartment complete with a sauna and log burner. Saunas are still an essential part of Finnish culture, with 99% of Finns taking one at least once a week! So why not join them!
