Wanha Waskoolimies

Saariselkä


By the entrance to gold-panning museum Kultamuseo at Tankavaara, this atmospheric cafe-restaurant actually predates the museum and serves typical Lapland dishes incorporating ingredients like Inarijärvi lake fish, Kittilä wild boar, Vuotso reindeer, and locally foraged berries and mushrooms. The attached Wild West Saloon has regular live music, billiards, darts and Finnish craft beers.

You can also stay here in rooms (two/four people €98/118) or cabins (two/four people €70/80), or camp (€13).
