Pihtijoki open wilderness hut is located south to river Pihtijoki. The modest open wilderness hut is available year-round, but there are no marked summer or winter trails to the hut. A demanding wilderness destination.

The open wilderness hut is a shared and free resting and overnight place for independent hikers (not for companies). You can stay in wilderness huts for one or two nights without a reservation. Be prepared for the possibility that there may not be enough space to sleep in the hut.

Facilities:

  • Sleeping platform with space for 4.
  • Heating with a wood stove.
  • No drinking water point. Water from natural sources must be purified before drinking.
  • No waste management. Take your own waste out of the area.
  • Bring your own cooking equipment.
  • Pets are allowed in the hut only with the consent of other users.
  • A wood shed and dry toilet in the yard.
