Wäinölä of Nuuksio

Wäinölä is a unique location in the middle of the forest, next to the Nuuksio National Park, less than 40 km from the center of Helsinki and the Helsinki airport. Wäinölä is the best place to learn about Finnish traditions, folklore and the Kalevala, the Finnish national epic.

Wäinölä can host up to 40 people at four big tables, for a group of 20 people the tables are combined into one large banquet table. Wäinölä is made by skilled craftsmen, logs are hand-carved and iron parts are made by the local blacksmith. A big fireplace brings atmosphere and warmth, Wäinölä is open around the year.
