​
NURTURING THE SOUL FROM MULTIPLE APPROACHES
​
Utula Nature is a holistic retreat; nature, silence, sauna, food, harmonious aesthetics and a guided program are created to support your experience.
If you want something to do in addition to relaxing, grab a SUP board or the rowing boat and go explore lake Saimaa from the water and head towards Huuhanranta beach or go on a half-day trip with snacks to the nearby islands.
A 7.5 km nature trail starts from our property to Huuhanranta, which we will get to know during a guided silent power-walk class. The route has the best paragliding spot in Southern Finland, which opens up the beautiful panoramic landscapes of Lake Saimaa. The road to Utula's traditional village shop also goes through the forest and the village track and is a nice destination for a walk.
FOOD
In Utula Nature's kitchen, Saimaa meets the rich tasting world of the Mediterranean! All our meals are served as a buffet and are vegetarian-based, tasty and filling. Our motto in the kitchen is "more is more". You have a tray at your disposal, which makes it easier to choose a place to eat according to the mood - you can eat inside, outside by the lake or on your own terrace, alone or together. As drinks, we serve infused water or iced tea, juice, coffee and tea.
SAUNA
Our wood-burning sauna, equipped with a panoramic window is heated every evening for our customers. Women and men take shifts in the sauna. In connection with the sauna, there is a warm outdoor shower and washing area for evening and morning washes.
​
Please note that the shared sauna is close to the public terrace, so please bring a swimsuit.
IN UTULA
The natural environment offers customers numerous opportunities to relax during the weekly program vacation; lounge chairs, hammocks and other sitting areas where you can read or rest in the heart of nature.
However, if you want something to do, go enjoy the lake with our rowing boat or SUP boards. A nature walk is another good option to get to know the nearby nature and the famous Huuhanranta.
AROUND
If you come to us by bike or car, there are interesting things to experience on the way and in the nearby surroundings.
We recommend for example; Norppa hiking trails, Kummakivi balancing rock, Imatra rapids show, Parikkala statue park, Salpa museum, Sahanlahti harbor pizzeria and Ruokolahti church hill, where the rural museum and Eukon trail are located.
