Octola Private Wilderness Lodge

Lapland, Finland

Your family’s Arctic escape: deep in nature, wrapped in luxury

At a glance

Hidden in the heart of Finnish Lapland, Octola Private Wilderness Lodge is a fully serviced, all-inclusive retreat set within 700 hectares of untouched Arctic forest. With forested trails, reindeer roaming free, and some of the cleanest air in the world, it’s a place where wilderness and exclusivity meet.

Arrive by huskies, reindeer, snowmobile, ATV, helicopter, or car, and step into a sanctuary designed for family celebrations, sabbatical stays, and once-in-a-lifetime adventures. Choose from the main lodge, Supersuite Villas, or the exclusive Igloo Suite, and let your family sink into nature’s rhythm.

Whether you’re snowmobiling across frozen lakes, salmon fishing in traditional wooden boats, or foraging for berries beneath the midnight sun, every moment at Octola is curated for connection, discovery, and ease.
