Manamansalo Camping

Alan Rogers Review of Manamansalo Camping

Manamansalo is a top class, ‘wild north’ tourist centre on the island of Manamansalo in Lake Oulojärvi. Arrival is by ferry or via a bridge from the mainland. This site is a real find if you are looking for peace and quiet and is also very good for families. It has 200 pitches, 140 with electricity, very attractively laid out in the forest and divided naturally by pine trees. The site stretches along the lake and has a long, narrow sandy beach. Nature lovers will appreciate the network of trails in the pine forest. Choose between walking and cycling or even skiing in spring.

For fishermen the lake is a paradise with an enormous range of fish, including salmon, pike, trout. The site’s marina has 12 guest places for boats. There is a fully licensed restaurant and a small shop on the site.
