Experience steamship cruise to the mysterious Ärjänsaari island.
Ärjänsaari island, the island of countless stories, is a stunning location surrounded by steep sandbanks. The island is also known as the gem of Lake Oulujärvi.
On your way to Ärjänsaari island you can enjoy the open Lake Oulujärvi sceneries and listen to stories about the island’s history.
If it happens to be a warm summer day, there is nothing quite like digging your feet into the burning island sand. Our crew will tell stories of the history the ship and also all the passengers have a possibility to visit the ship’s engine room where our engine master tells about the function of steam engine in practice.
Steamship Kouta is the northernmost steamship in Europe.
The ropes are let loose as the white-sided steamship slides across River Kajaaninjoki with its prow towards Lake Oulujärvi. Over 100-year-old steam engine under the deck, heated with care, chugs to a steady rhythm and moves the craft almost silently. Along River Kajaaninjoki,we pass by the landscape that inspired author Elias Lönnrot and poet Eino Leino and soon one of the biggest lakes in Finland opens up ahead of us. Steep sandbanks shimmer in the summer sun.
The ship has seats on the deck as well as inside the salon (under a roof), for up to 60 passengers. You do not need to worry about rain or wind and more often than not, the weather on Lake Oulujärvi is clear although it might be raining in the city. The steamship bar is fully licenced.
