Lauha's rental hut is located inside the Lauhanvuori national park in a pine forest. The rental of the hut is only possible through the online store.
There are two accommodation buildings in the area. A hut for 2 people ( approx. 15 m2) with stove heating and rudimentary tableware. The second hut has four beds ( approx. 18m2) and it has no heating, so it is only suitable for use during warm weather. Both huts as well as the separate wood-heated sauna building are included in the rent.
