SERVICES

Saarua Hut by the lower lift stations has a picninc area both indoors and out as well as an open fire and toilet facilities. 

Restaurant Ski Bistro is located near the Saarua slopes.

Saarua is the most popular slope area in Ruka, which is not surprising as these slopes are always in top condition and nicely sheltered by the woods, even on a windy day.

The slopes are easily reached by either a t-bar or one of the chair lifts. BatteryPark is the snowboarders' favourite and no less than the best park in Finland! The park is constantly changing and getting new features like new rails or boxes, which are very well maintained throughout the ski season.

The Masters' chairs
Some chairs on the Saarua 3 person chairlift have been dedicated to succesful skiers from Ruka. To get your own chair you have to have a gold medal from the Olympics, World Championships or the World Cup. Kalle Palander has a red chair, Janne Lahtela has a black and yellow one and the all yellow one belongs to Mikko Ronkainen.
