Your gateway to the northern lights  

Surrounded by the snowy forests, the Miilu Northen Lights Cabins are located on the shoreline of Lake Ylläsjärvi.

Staying at this remote retreat you'll be in prime position to spot the northern lights. Lapland is one of the best places in the world to witness the auroa borealis and wintertime stays in these cabins provide the greatest opportunity to witness this natural phenomenon.

These brand-new semi-detached cabins are furnished in a modern Finnish style with wood paneling and large windows overlooking the lake. Their quiet, secluded location makes for an excellent choice for your next arctic adventure. Each cabin has everything you need for a stay in Finnish Lapland, including a fully equipped kitchenette and dining area, a lounge with a television, and comfortable sleeping areas. And, after a day of activities in the great outdoors, warm up in your own private sauna.

Exploring Ylläs and beyond

During your stay you'll have the option to add on activities like downhill skiing at the nearby Ylläsjärvi ski resort or snow shoeing. Try out exciting excursions such as a reindeer safari, snowmobiles through the arctic tundra, husky sledding or a visit to the Snow Village to see the beautiful sculptures carved from ice and snow.
