Settle into Outokumpu for focused work and simple, comfortable living. All of our co-living apartments are within a 10-minute walk of our central 24/7 co-working hub at Kuumunkatu 12, right in the heart of the city.

Co-working (open 24/7)
- Work any time that suits your rhythm at Kuumunkatu 12. You’ll be just steps from two local shops, a coffee spot, and several restaurants—perfect for quick breaks, casual meetings, or late-night sprints.

Connected location
- Direct bus to Kuopio, with easy onward train connections to Lapland and Helsinki
- Direct bus to Joensuu ~30 minutes away with extensive services, an airport, car rentals, and direct trains to Helsinki. Plenty to do & everyday essentials close by, including Lidl and other supermarkets (Joensuu)

Nature next door
- You’re in the Finnish Lakeland, surrounded by calm forests and clear lakes. Koli National Park is within easy reach for iconic ridge hikes and sweeping views, and there are many other nearby trails and lakes for day hikes, berry picking, paddling, and swims in summer. Our residents regularly heads out to hike, bike, and boat—you’re warmly invited to join.

Northern Lights, darker nights

- Outokumpu’s modest size means low light pollution just outside town, which makes it surprisingly good for aurora watching when the skies are clear and activity is up.

Apartment features
- Fast, reliable Wi-Fi
- Shared, fully equipped kitchen
- In-unit washer

- Sauna access, with schedules arranged by our managers

Built for builders

This setup is ideal for remote workers, students, and professionals who want flexible work options, strong transport links, and a friendly, hands-on community—without giving up privacy and comfort. Focus hard when you need to, then step into nature (or the sauna) when you’re done.

Outokumpu offers Nordic living at small-town prices. You’ll find your budget goes further here than in major Nordic hubs, so you can stay longer and explore more: Koli’s trails, lake days, Joensuu’s culture, and frequent community hikes and rides.

Community

Located is a small former mining town with a big heart—and plenty of room to think. Surrounded by forests and lakes, it’s an exceptionally peaceful place to focus, reset, and build.

Close to everything, far from the noise.
Joensuu is just about 30 minutes away, giving you easy access to a university city’s services: airport, car rentals, culture, healthcare, shopping, and direct train links to Helsinki. You get the calm of the city, with the convenience of a regional hub right next door.

Dark skies, bright nights.
Thanks to low light pollution just outside town, it’s possible to see the Northern Lights when conditions are right—clear skies and active space weather turn the countryside into a natural planetarium.

A community of doers.
We’re a hands-on group of startup builders and developers who’ve chosen us for its focus and affordability. Expect practical people, quick collaboration, and a get-things-done culture shaped by the town’s industrial roots.

Nature on your doorstep.
Weekends (or work breaks) can be as active as you like: hiking along quiet forest trails, boating on nearby lakes, swimming spots in summer, cross-country tracks in winter, foraging, fishing, and plenty of fresh air.

Why it works.
Our small town pairs deep focus and community support with the services of Joensuu close by. It’s a place where you can work hard, live simply, and still have adventure right outside your door.
