A Little History
Jouni started out by selling boot wax, sugar cones and other such useful items to the people of Akaslompolo from downstairs in his home. Life goes on and in September 2010, Jouni opened this shopping centre – the kind that people could not have dreamt of back in the 50s, except perhaps in America. Jouni Kauppa is nature friendly and takes its heating energy from the underground rock. But don’t worry, Jouni is still Jouni; you can still visit them without unnecessary fuss and dressed in just the way you feel is right for you, the shopping complex also has a pharmacy off licence and cafe within the supermarket complex.

Snow Fun Safari Offices
Snow Fun safaris are much more than driving a snowmobile or sliding around on snowshoes. Both are means of getting out and enjoying the magnificent Ylläs scenery and learning about the local ecosystem, history and culture. During the safaris they acquaint their guests with the nature and the traditions of Lapland inhabitants, how they have lived and traveled throughout the years, what have been their hobbies and beliefs. You will learn about the real life of Lapp people. Having a local guide thoroughly familiar with the area is what turns an ordinary safari into a Snow Fun Safari
These are located about 500m from the cabin, walk down Teerentie at the end turn left into Kaulavaarantie and follow the road down and their offices are on the right.
