Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We can highly recommend this activity: Our guide Jussi explained the technique very well (we enjoyed his humour!), and guide Tessa conveyed enthusiasm, making them perfect company.
The gear and equipment was top notch and well looked after, safety is first, so that you can relax on these issues.
For first time climbers, the area is ideal, and you can climb up to 3 times.
Great experience for the whole family, therefore 5 stars.

We went for a ski touring excursion to Valtavaara.
Our guide Lotta was very good, attentive, engaging and engaged. She took us through some amazing retrains with pristine untouched snow deep in the forest and up to the fire guard hut from where we enjoyed the 360 degrees view of the area.
Lotta was very informative regarding the forest ecosystem, climate change issues and life in the area.
I would have no qualms to recommend Lotta and her company for an immersive experience in nature and I will be looking forward to another excursion next time we are in Ruka.

We ice climbed with Jussi as our guide. He was so knowledgable and explained everything , going above and beyond to make us comfortable. You can tell that safety is their first priority so if you want to try this adventure and it is your first time and you are scared, Jussi is perfect ! Non judgemental, making you feel safe and comfortable , the kit is high quality and he’s very through and follows you through every step reassuring you . Jussi is relaxed so he doesn’t rush you or pressure you so you can take your time and he helps if you don’t get something or are slow . He was also friendly , asking us how we found the experience and trying to instill love for climbing and adventure ! Thank you Jussi and until next time

I rent hiking equipment with Outdoor Passion to hike along the Karhunkierros
trail. The service, communication and the quality of the equipment were all wonderful. Lotta was amazing! She explained me everything that I needed to know as a first time long-distance hiker. She even planned out for me the suitable distance of each leg, beautiful spots for overnight stays, etc. I'm so grateful to her help that made my entire hiking experience really wonderful, and simply cannot think anything that she could do better. Highly recommended!

We went on a tour to riisitunturi national park with the amazing guide Lotta. Even though it was our first experience Everything from start to finish was just perfect! She took us through a very scenic route through the park all the way to a hut where we had the most delicious wraps (prepared by Lotta). It was a very memorable experience and would definitely repeat it again.
Would Highly recommend this to anyone wanting to go on an unforgettable adventure !!

We went with our adult children for a hike to the Korouoma nature reserve to climb the frozen Mammutti waterfall. We loved the hike and of course the challenging ice waterfall climb. It was an amazing trip well organized by Lotta and Jossie. The climb was very challenging but felt very safe due to the safety lines well prepared and instructions by Jossie. After the climb we had a great bbq on the fire. We already miss the trip so much! It was a great experience for all of us.

We have been to Ruka a few times and always seen the ice climbing wall and this time decided to give it a go.
I am so glad we did.
We met at the Ruka Safari where we were introduced to our guide. He fully explained how the experience was going to go and kitted us out with all the right equipment. We hiked to the ice wall where we were given instruction and then set about climbing the routes. It was great fun and very safe. We had more than time to do as many climbs as we wanted and take plenty of photos and videos. When we finished climbing, after a short packing up, we walked back to Cafe Camu where we had hot chocolate and water and talked about the experience. I also asked for and got information on their other Winter and Summer experiences which I will be trying another time. I can't believe the other low review as it was the complete opposite of my experience and no book could replace this experience. Will definitely recommend and use again.
