The Grand Canoe Rental

The grand canoe is an adventurous and nature-friendly hobby and a way of life for many!

Olkkajärvi is a perfect environment for paddling.

You can plan your route or use our pre-planned route options. About 2 km from the resort, you'll find a resting area managed by Apukka where you can stop during your trip. Rest, make a fire, and enjoy a picnic.

Our canoes are designed for recreational use, suitable for paddlers of all levels, and perfect for small groups or large families. The grand canoe can hold a maximum of 8 people (we recommend at least 4 adult-sized paddlers/canoe).

You can also rent a hiking Backpack that includes 4 sausages, grill sticks, a matchbox, a first-aid kit, and tissues.
