I love this winter wonderland! It's like Narnia, and there's so many things you can do in here, besides skiing ofcourse. The best way to find cheap accommodation is to get all your friends together and rent a cottage!! They're wonderful! 41 days, 6 hours ago

If you want to have the best game dishes in Finland, you should go to Riipinen's. No matter if it's reindeer, elk, rabbit, birds or even bear, Riipinen does it best.

Ruka itself is one of the most famous ski centers in Finland, but there is something that everyone doesn't know. There you can find the longest summer sled track in Finland and that is really worth trying! Ruka has also many other activities in summer, for example summer skiing, canoeing and bear watching. But the best one is of course that summer sled track! 21 days, 3 hours ago
Lots of snow and a beautiful nature. Cross-country skiing trails are a bit too challenging for me, but they are really dapper. If you love partying, you will like Ruka. There are lots of nice bars and restaurants, sporty people etc ;) 40 days, 6 hours ago
