Welcome to Karila Farm, café and barn gallery!
On the northern edge of Äkäslompolo, next to the national park, you will find an old traditional landscape, the Karila farm, founded in 1953, and the Karila Navettagalleria and café located in its courtyard.
The smell of coffee and fresh doughnuts invites you to step through the barn door into the café filled with art and crafts. The atmospheric café offers, among other things, fresh doughnuts, homemade pastries and delicious food made from locally produced ingredients and natural products. While you are eating, you can admire the works of our family artists and buy handicrafts and natural products.
Karila farm invites you to stop, to enjoy the idyllic courtyard of the old farm and experience the connection between nature and creativity.
