Company information

Nature and Silence are in our hearts. Being close to nature offers you the opportunity to truly listen to the world around you and yourself. Here you can escape the fast pace of life, find peace and reconnect with nature. We want everyone to leave here feeling calm, rested, and one unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience richer. The beauty of nature surrounds every activity here. You can easily and safely explore the nearby terrain, whether it's winter or any other season. During winter, snowshoes, sliding snowshoes, and forest skis are at your disposal, making your adventures even more exciting. A small yet fun sledding hill invites even adults to rediscover the joy of sliding. Several fire pits provide a serene setting to relax and enjoy the calming presence of a crackling fire, where you can also grill your food under the open sky. When the aurora borealis appears, the sky becomes a breathtaking canvas of light and motion. With no city lights to interfere, the brilliance of the stars and the northern lights can be admired right from the yard. Eco-Unela is more than just accommodation—it’s a place to immerse yourself in nature, enjoy outdoor activities, and experience a traditional Finnish sauna. While staying here, you’ll find that accommodation is just a small part of Eco-Unela’s essence.
