After this, the program continues with a guided tour of the nature cottage Mesikkä. Note: Rajakenraali Raappana's cabin, located in the outdoor area, is not included in the tour from October onwards. Mateli and Korhonen's museum granaries and the Orthodox Chapel of All Saints are excluded from the tour during snowy periods.

After the tour, the group moves to Restaurant Parppeinpirtti to enjoy the offerings of the modern Karelian feast.
