Besides, other parts of the farm are a shop with caf\u00e9, a small gas station, a restaurant, and even a bar.<\/p>\n<p>The cottages of the holiday village give visitors an impression of the Lappish lifestyle.

All the buildings are designed traditionally and are surrounded by art. This is an important fact for the family. Some pictures are even made by the daughter. With all these details they make the village more unique. A good example is the restaurant. The ground is from the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century, they only serve silver cutlery and all the furniture is second hand, to keep it authentic and classy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-266x266 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blogi.eoppimispalvelut.fi\/sarilari\/files\/2018\/11\/PicsArt_11-05-03.45.27-768x768.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"535\" height=\"535\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>What can I do in Kierinki?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The company offers a lot of different <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kieringinloma.fi\/en\/Activities\">activities<\/a>, it depends on which season you&#8217;ll visit the village. Visitors can go fishing, rent a boat, go skiing, visit husky farms or visit a huge reindeer farm. In summer a lot of events take place. Mostly there are some country music events and you can chill outside at the bar and enjoy a cold beer for example. Check out their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/kierinkivillage\">Facebook<\/a> page to see what\u2019s going on!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What about the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sustainable, environmental tourism is a big issue for the owners. Their vision is to create a network about this important topic and discuss how many people Lapland can take before nature gets destroyed. Another crucial point is to support your local and uses 100% local ingredients (they already use 80%).<\/p>\n<p>In my opinion, this is a really important topic, to care about the beautiful landscape of Lapland. We should take more action, and this is what the owners do. It is a great begin of starting something big and being more considerate with our planet.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-266x266 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blogi.eoppimispalvelut.fi\/sarilari\/files\/2018\/11\/IMG-20181023-WA0016.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"559\" height=\"332\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the end, I want to thank you for this interesting tour and the great food we got during our visit.
