Visit in summer!

A cow rides a bicycle and a fox drives on a moped. At the folk school brought to life by an ITE artist, scraps have a new life.

Murtovaara was once a lively centre of Southern Kuusamo, where the municipality even built a terraced house. The school, the shop and the courtyards of the terraced houses became quiet over the decades, but in the summer Murtovaara comes alive. Vacationers return to their roots and the artist opens his gallery to the public.

Kuusamo’s most fascinating natural forests open east of Murtovaara.
