Pyhä Luosto in Lapland map location

Pyhä is popular among different target groups and there were over 104 000 registered overnight stays in 2018. The growth rate from 2016 to 2018 can be measured in double digits. Pyhä is part of the bigger Pyhä-Luosto tourist region and the area is investing in tourism development and internationalization.  The resort is reached easily by air through Rovaniemi and Kuusamo airports, and the nearest railway station is at nearby Kemijärvi.

Already existing accommodation and tourism activities provide a ready cooperation option for an investor. Also, besides the ski resort, the Pyhä-Luosto National Park is a significant attraction. Now the area is looking for new investors and tourism operators.
