About Ikaalinen
Ikaalinen is a town of about 6,700 people whose centre sits on a peninsula in Lake Kyrösjärvi, around 55 km north-west of Tampere. The municipality covers more than 840 square km, and our homes are scattered across it and the wider Pirkanmaa countryside rather than gathered in the centre, so check each map position. The town grew around sawmills in the late 19th century and developed as a spa town in the early 1900s; Ikaalinen Spa is still what it is known for. Nearly every home has a sauna and most have a fireplace, while Wi-Fi is far from universal. They typically sleep around six. Seitseminen National Park, partly inside the municipality, holds some of Finland's oldest forest open to the public.
Is Ikaalinen right for you?
- Best for
- Sauna-equipped homes within reach of Tampere and the lakes
- Not for you if
