    Nice view over Kuopio. A bit overpriced in my opinion though. Best views are from outside, take the stairs up from the cafeteria.  more »

    We were lucky with the weather & the tower offered ridiculously good views in all directions. An added novelty was the views onto the ski jumps, allowing you to get an idea of what it must feel like.....  more »

    what a great view! there's also a lovely cafe on top, and you can go even further up and to walk and look around on the roof. the restaurant was being renovated when I was there, so I can't say anything about that.
  • By Ville Salminen
    Very nice view over Kuopio and surrounding areas. Tower and restaurant/cafe were under construction on July 2019, so you couldn't buy any refresments, but the sight terrace on the top was in use. You can choose elevator or stairs, but choose the stairs only If you are in good shape.
