HOTEL KAKSLAUTTANEN
Hotel Kakslauttanen offer 40 first-class log cabins, out of which five are queen suites, one honeymoon turf
chamber and one traditional Lappish farmer log house. All the cabins are
equipped with a double bed, a shower, toilet, fireplace, kitchenette and own
private sauna. The cabins are located sufficiently far apart so that each
cabin has its own peaceful garden area. The whole village, the cabins,
restaurant and saunas, are handmade of the rare dead standing pine, kelo.
We have the world's largest smoke sauna with its own restaurant. The
sauna has enough room to host up to 150 people. Additionally there are
two large log saunas. The charming restaurant in the main building has seating for 160 customers and is fully
licensed. Two Lapp tent restaurants can serve around 50 guests and are bound to give you an authentic Lappish
experience you will never forget. Furthermore we have a souvenir shop and handicraft gallery.
IGLOO VILLAGE
In winter Igloo Village Kakslauttanen offers a possibility to enjoy a range of unique winter recreation activities like
spending a night in a snow or glass igloo, dining in a snow restaurant,
admiring ice marvels in the Ice Gallery or getting married in our highly
popular snow chapel. Igloo Village lies in a close proximity of
Kakslauttanen, just on the other side of the spring. There are 20 glass
igloos, 60 beds in snow igloos and a one of a kind glass kota. The snow
restaurant provides seating for 50-150 people. Igloo Village is open each
year between December and January depending on the weather conditions
and stays open until the end of April.
SNOW IGLOO
Imagine yourself sleeping completely surrounded by snow. The silence is enchanting and lights inside the ice cast
mysterious shadows on the snow walls. The breathtaking atmosphere lulls you into a deep, comfortable sleep in
your warm down sleeping bag. The temperature inside the snow igloo stays always between -3°C and -6°C.
Besides a warm down sleeping bag (rated extreme temperature is -32°C), we provide you woolen socks and a
hood, so that you will never feel cold. That's a promise!
GLASS IGLOO
Glass igloo provides a one of a kind opportunity to admire the northern lights
and millions of stars of the crystal clear Lapp sky in a comfortable room
temperature. Based on a groundbreaking idea and years of research and
development, glass igloos are a marvel of modern technology. Built from a
special thermal glass the temperature inside the igloo always stays at a
normal level. It also prevents the glass from not getting white frosted, hence
keeping the view clear even when the temperature outside drops to under -30°C. Every igloo is equipped with a
toilet and luxury beds. On every evening a hot sauna and a refreshing ice hole are waiting for you.
GLASS KOTA
Glass Kota is a heated building in the shape of a traditional Lapp teepee, 8 meters high and 8 meters wide. Made
of the space special thermal glass as glass igloos, Glass Kota offers an
unobscured view of the beautiful Lapp night sky and the magical northern
lights. Snow chapel is situated nearby, making Glass Kota an ideal place for a
cocktail party before or after the wedding. What could be more amazing than to
sip a cold drink inside the warm Glass Kota during a snow storm. Glass Kota
has also its own altar suitable for wedding ceremonies.
