History of Kivitatti

Why Majatalo-Gasthaus-Kivitatti?

On our trips through Germany and Europe we preferred to stay in guesthouses and private bed and breakfast lodges, because it is the best way to experience the people and the region. Already in those days, the idea was developing to eventually have our own bed and breakfast lodge in Finland. After our children had left the nest, we were free to make new decisions.

How did we get to Päijätsalo?

When we were looking for a place for our majatalo/Gasthaus, we besides others came to Päijätsalo. We were instantly inspired by the rough and beautiful nature, from the silence of this island to the power of the Päijänne Lake. The “forest mushroom street” (fin.:Tattimetsäntie) was a fitting name for our bed and breakfast lodge.

We want to offer to all people, who are interested in Finland’s land and nature, a refreshing and eventful holiday on the island of Päijätsalo.

So come and experience it for yourself!
