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.

What travellers are saying
- Ji-Soo Kim6 contributionsThis was one of the highlights of our trip in Lapland! Petri took us to the forest with his snowmobile where we found hundreds of reindeers waiting hor us! We got to feed them, observe them, and hear everything about them from Petri who responded all our questions with accuracy and enthusiasm. We also got to rest around a fire pit with hot coffee/tea and cinnamon buns. It was also great to learn more about the Sami language and culture and to visit the small shop (where we bought a fantastic reindeer hide). We highly recommend it!Written 28 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- K D HManlius, NY131 contributionsThis remote chapel is a wonder. It is as though time stopped in 1895, and still in use we were told, but only for certain holidays and occasions.Written 15 June 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JariJKKouvola, Finland5,324 contributionsWe started our hike from Tradition Hotel Kultahovi in Inari. We followed Juutua Trail (Juutuan polku) to Jäniskoski Rapids. After the suspension bridge we chose a separate trail to Otsamo Fell. The trail is marked well with signposts and red wooden poles. You don't need a map if you stay on the trail. The distance from Tradition Hotel Kultahovi to Fell Otsamo is about 9 kilometers and it takes 3-4 hours. So there and back it takes about 6-8 hours.
There aren't any services on the route, except for some campfire sites. On Otsamo Fell you find a free day hut and a dry toilet (take your own toilet papers with you). Going uphill the trail is quite deep. So it is a good idea to have hiking boots with good ankle support. You don't need wellies (rubber boots) if the weather isn't very rainy. There may be some mosquitoes in the forest (especially in July and August) but usually you don't see mosquitoes on the fell. Because of mosquitoes it isn't a good idea to wear shorts and a short sleeve t-shirt. I recommend wearing long sleeve clothes and a hat. Remember to take enough water or other beverages with you.
Hiking to Otsamo Fell is a bit challenging but absolutely worth the effort. The scenery is fabulous. It is very relaxing to enjoy views and silence on the fell.
If you don't want to hike 18 kilometers, you can walk to Otsamo Fell from another side. First drive to Rovajärvi parking place. From there the trail to Otsamo Fell is about 2.6 kilometers in one direction.Written 26 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Its a beautiful old building, well maintained & obviously well loved by the locals with many people using it to get married in, even in summer despite guests having a lengthy journey to get there by foot. In Winter you can get there easily by snow mobile and the associated buildings next to it are very interestingWritten 5 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Andrew SSouthampton, UK347 contributionsVisited this church on the way to see some reindeer. A rustic wooden building fashioned and decorated in the orthodox style. The internal design is simple, while retaining adherence to its religious foundation. In particular a simple wooden altar with an array of paintings of saints in the icon style as the altar piece/backdrop.
Above more paintings of angels in a circle surrounding an image of God.
This church is well worthy of a visit en route to another attraction.Written 3 March 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

And we got to eat a delicious cloudberry pie which she baked for us! A visit here is definitely recommended for a firsthand encounter with the marvelous Sami culture of Finland's Lapland region. Raisa was a very nice host and her communication in English is excellent.Written 2 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
