Lappish Summer Break
Riekko & Jänkä Summer Break
Two Distinctive Stays, One Summer Adventure
Discover Lapland at its most peaceful on a summer break combining gentle outdoor adventures with time to slow down and enjoy the natural surroundings. Hike through forests and across open fells, paddle over clear lakes, swim in fresh Arctic waters and spend time meeting the region’s much-loved huskies and reindeer.
Two Peaceful Retreats, One Unforgettable Lapland Adventure
Stay amid the forests, fells and clear lakes of Finnish Lapland, with a choice between the contemporary villas of Jänkä Ranch and the cosy log cabins of Riekko Lodge. Although each offers its own distinctive atmosphere, both provide a comfortable base for the same carefully planned summer experiences, including hiking, canoeing, lake swimming and memorable encounters with the huskies and reindeer.
Days are shaped around the natural rhythm of the northern summer, with time to explore the wilderness, enjoy the long daylight hours and experience Lapland at a relaxed pace. Whether you prefer the ranch setting and modern comforts of Jänkä or the traditional cabin character and peaceful woodland surroundings of Riekko, both offer a welcoming place to reconnect with nature and enjoy meaningful family time beneath the Midnight Sun.
