Tundrea

About Tundrea

Tundrea cabins and apartments offer a choice of timber-built accommodation which is quintessentially Lappish. Tundrea is tucked away at the foot of the Saana Fell – arguably the most iconic fell (hill) in Lapland – and sits at the banks of Lake Kilpisjarvi, offering sweeping panoramic views of the Arctic landscape. Steeped in myths and legends, Kilpisjarvi is the last outpost of Finnish Lapland; located in the far north, just above the tree line - a real example of 'True Lapland' - ideal for the adventurous.
