Tiera Resort – a peaceful nature escape in Taivalkoski

When you long for quiet forests, unhurried mornings and time together, Tiera Resort welcomes you to Taivalkoski. Set on the slopes of Taivalvaara, close to the town centre, this nature hotel is a base for exploring the Koillismaa region throughout the year. Tiera’s Bioharmonia philosophy brings people, nature and place into balance through outdoor experiences, good food and restful moments under one roof.

Stay at your own pace

The hotel has 30 rooms and accommodation options for different kinds of holidays, including accommodation with a private sauna or terrace. After a day outdoors, return for a swim in the indoor pool and let the warmth of the sauna ease tired muscles. The swimming facilities also welcome other visitors.

A cabin stay close to nature

Alongside its hotel rooms, Tiera offers accommodation in separate cabins. The Pitkälammen wilderness centre, with its lakeside sauna, provides a setting surrounded by nature. Settle into a holiday with time to enjoy the lake views and each other’s company.

Flavours of Koillismaa

At Tiera’s restaurant and café, Bioharmonia means an appreciation of local food, wild ingredients and the culinary traditions of Koillismaa. Start the day with breakfast and return for lunch or dinner. Tailored meals and meeting refreshments are also available for groups.

Summer light and forest trails

Walking trails begin in the hotel grounds. Hire a canoe or an electric fatbike and explore at your own pace, or discover the region with a guide. Canoeing on the River Iijoki, hiking, cycling and fishing bring movement and fresh scenery to your holiday. Guided local tours introduce the nature, history and culture of Taivalkoski.

Winter stillness and adventures

Winter brings cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, electric fatbike tours, and husky and reindeer safaris. Ice fishing, winter fishing with a professional fisher and northern lights excursions offer different ways to experience the North. Tiera Park, right beside the hotel, offers downhill skiing and a snow park, with a children’s slope and play area for younger visitors. In the evening, return to the hotel’s warmth, sauna and a peaceful night’s rest.
