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.
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.

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.
