Been here?
A quiet lakeside parking area beside the road, with a simple walk around the lake and hiking routes about 5 minutes away. A WC and grill shelter with wood are about 100 m along the lake, and a small shop and restaurant are nearby. Half the parking area is currently used for construction storage, with machinery arriving from 8h. The lake loop is closed because the wooden structures are fragile.

Second visit, still very quiet. A simple little walk around the lake. Longer walks are possible in the village.Translating
Nice parking area by the lake, toilet about a two-minute walk along the lakeside. Five minutes on foot from several beautiful hikes. Lots of mosquitoes, but also lots of cute reindeer!Translating
Very nice parking area between the road and lake, with a toilet and fire pit with wood available. Shops directly opposite, including a small village store with a large selection.Translating
Very nice place to stay overnight, idyllically located on Ahvenlampi (Aurora Place). Half the parking area is currently being used to store construction materials. On a weekday this was not a problem, as the work was taking place some distance away. A small supermarket and good restaurant are nearby in Luostotunturi.Translating
Nice place but for us it felt too close to the village so we drove on. Lots of locals walking their dogs. Lot of reindeer around.
Half the parking area is closed for storing construction materials. From 8 a.m., the machinery comes to collect them. It is not possible to walk around the lake because the route is closed due to the fragile wooden structures.Translating
There is still enough wood available. The barbecue hut is great. Half the parking area is currently separated off for a construction site. It can be used for a quiet night.Translating
Quiet parking area and starting point for hiking trails, but little activity. Beautiful path around the lake, a hut with a fire pit, plenty of firewood and a barbecue. Dry toilet in excellent condition.Translating
8.5 m. In 1/10/2024, out 2/10/2024. Free, paved and illuminated parking near the small lake of Ahvenlampi. Located beside the road. Vehicle noise can be heard, but traffic is almost nonexistent at night. Pleasant walk around the lake. Peaceful night.
It is a car parking area. A road runs along one side, while the other has trees and the river below. Lots of mosquitoes. Constant turnover. In the morning there was noise from people working with machinery. No rubbish container or bin.Translating
The best parking spot we have had so far. We stayed for two nights, with a great barbecue hut right around the corner, and every evening the reindeer herd came to visit. Dreamlike!Translating
Great spot. Beautiful hikes nearby, a lake, and especially a barbecue area with firewood and a lovely view.Translating
Very nice place (but next to the road). Saw there squirrel in the morning:)) trail next to the lake was well lit, you should walk to the right on trail to find the toilet.
Although the parking area itself is directly beside the road, the park behind it with its barbecue hut is incredibly beautiful. You can spend a wonderfully peaceful evening by the fire with a view of the lake. In the morning we walked around the lake. Highly recommended for one night after hiking in the national park.Translating
Perfect overnight spot with a barbecue hut and toilet nearby. Be sure to climb the 670 steps and enjoy the view! It is worth it.Translating
