Alan Rogers Review
Koljonvirta Camping is a large but quiet site located about five kilometres from the centre of Iisalmi. There are 200 marked grass pitches, 120 with electricity (16A). The site adjoins a lake and has a small beach and facilities for boating and fishing. Iisalmi town itself is on the northern edge of the Finnish Lake District and provides a good variety of shops, including some factory outlets, and an interesting variety of events during June, July and August. These vary from the world famous ‘Wife Carrying’ World Championships to the Lapinlahti ‘Cattle Calling’ Competition and the International Midnight Marathon.

Getting there...
From road 5 turn onto the 88 (towards Oulu) just north of Iisalmi. Go straight over the roundabout and the site is about 1 km. on the left. Follow signs.
