Activities, experiences and accommodation

Tankavaara Gold Village offers hotel and restaurant services as well as activities year-round. Our restaurant has seats up to 100 people and our hotel can accommodate over 70 people. During the summer we offer gold panning and gold prospecting activities and in winter Tankavaara is an ideal location for northern lights hunting because we have so few lights in the area. Urho Kekkonen national park is also right on our doorstep.

Gold prospectors have been searching for gold in Lapland for 150 years and in Tankavaara Gold Village, we still continue this unique culture by teaching the secrets of gold panning to visitors every summer. We even borrow you all the equipment needed and you can keep all the gold you find!
Gold panning is available from June to September daily.
