A Unique New Venue in the Heart of Nuuksio

Opened in August 2025, the Scenic Hut is the architectural jewel of Haltia Lake Lodge – a space that is both striking and deeply rooted in nature. Nestled into the surrounding forest like a bird’s nest, its curved wooden structure, turf-covered roof, and branch-like exterior give the impression that it has grown directly from the landscape. Through its panoramic windows, tranquil views open onto Lake Nuuksion Pitkäjärvi in every season.

Designed by architect Malin Moisio, the Scenic Hut draws inspiration from the mystique of Finnish nature and the ancient tradition of kammis – sheltered, nest-like refuges where people and animals once sought safety. The idea of homelike coziness, peace, and community lies at its heart: a place to gather, connect, and share stories by the glow of an open fire.

At the center of the hut is a large open fireplace that provides warmth, atmosphere, and the opportunity to cook over real flames. The space is also equipped with a glass wall that shields guests from wind and snow, making the Scenic Hut a truly year-round venue – equally inviting on soft summer evenings and in the middle of a crisp Nordic winter.

Versatile Possibilities for Unforgettable Events

The Scenic Hut offers an intimate yet impressive stage for groups of up to 30 people. It is perfectly suited for both corporate and private occasions, such as:

• 🌿 Open-Fire Dinners: Wilderness chefs preparing seasonal flavors by the flames.

• 💼 Corporate Events: Product launches, workshops, strategy days, and team gatherings in nature.

• 🥂 Private Celebrations: Birthdays, family gatherings, memorials, and other milestones.

More Than a Venue – An Experience

Whether it’s a strategic company day, an impressive client dinner, a family celebration, or a gathering of friends, the Scenic Hut makes every moment extraordinary.
