Okskota
Huts
Description: The place is a popular local hiking destination for its location and versatility. There is an old hut, a new hut (Tervakota, which is locked and only used by Terva leg members), a lean -to, a fireplace, a wooden, and a small dock leading to the pond. It is possible to travel to the home by walking along a six -star hiking trail or by mountain bike. The previously dilapidated route is now very visible thanks to increased mountain biking. When a good snow winter permits through Okslampi and past Koda, there is also a traditional ski trail, through which it has been skiing all the way to the container.

Other names:: What type of hut is this? This is an Open Hut: This is our own classification, there is no Finnish translation. But many cities & neighborhoods that are building new huts are not building a Laavu / Laavut anymore. They are building a more modern / comfortable hut. One that is more of a box shaped, with a roof and partially enclosed walls. It is still "open," exposed to the weather but still blocks the weather. Many will have a picnic bench inside, woodpile, axe & saw you can use. To find these on huts.fi use the advanced filter called “Type of Hut” select “Open Hut.” To learn the difference between this type of hut and the Finnish Laavu, go here: https://www.huts.fi/page/types-of-huts-in-finland
