Flight & other transport

We flew with Finnair  from Brussels to Ivalo with a 1h stop in Helsinki. 

The airport shuttle to Saariselka leaves from the airport right to Saariselka. Coming from the airport is was convenient and easy! However be warned: when we needed the bus back from Saariselka, the bus was no show. We waited outside in -20 for 45 minutes (and yes we were on time) till we called a taxi. A taxi came very quickly and took us to the Airport for about 80€ 

Stay 

We stayed at Lapin Kutsu Log Cabins which we booked through Booking.com. The bus dropped us of in front of where the key pick up was (self service) and then it was about a 8 minute walk to find the cabin. Once we found it, it was perfect! Great location, walking distance from the shop, the ski resort, several tour organizers and the national park for lovely hikes. 

Period 

We went in February which is the perfect time to catch those longer days and to see the Northern light. It was up to -27 degrees but we had some nice blue skies.
