The program contains beside the observatory a small hotel, Finnish spa areas, restaurant and a planetarium in the middle of surrounding forests and pristine nature. The design of the observatory embodies the effect of making the landscape into a composition by providing a frame. The hotel with restaurant and the planetary fills in the service for the visitor by making the spot a tourist destination. The hotel offers private rooms and Finnish spa areas enclosing around a spacious forest area, thus creating a ?forest courtyard? in the sense of semi-closed private space in the middle of pristine Laplandish nature.
