Huosilampi shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

With a shelter, woodshed, pier and fire pit this is a great picnic site option around the Huosilampi Pond.

Impressive, I have rarely seen anything like it at home, except for the Ludwig Ganghofer Hut near Bonstetten, which, however, has no lake.

August 3, 2023,Hike in Hossa

Short easy hike with beautiful views on the lakes and ponds around.

July 27, 2024,🥾🇫🇮🌲 LOUNTOPOLKU🌲HOSSA NP

Unfortunately, the weather put a damper on my plans and the big planned trail in Hossa NP fell through. It rained too hard and for too long. I waited in the car for two hours and slept most of the time - from 9 to 11😊, but unfortunately it didn't get any better.
