A nature and wellness holiday in Koli National Park

A NATURE AND WELLNESS HOLIDAY IN KOLI NATIONAL PARK
– Let’s the make best summer memories on the island of Tarina-Aho

Tarina-Aho is a unique holiday destination on an island in Lake Pielinen, in the middle of the Koli national landscape. Our yard consists of three traditional log buildings, which were originally made by hand in North Karelia and were later moved to Kelvänsaari.

For us, Tarina-Aho is a place that combines nature, Lake Pielinen, peace of mind, the simplicity of things and the North Karelian tradition and hospitality. Arriving at Tarina-Aho is like a trip back in time – busy everyday life and worries remain on the mainland as you board the boat.

We want to offer our guests the most unhurried experience in the middle of nature, which is why we have tried to make every visit as special just for you.
