The new owner of the Ähtäri Pandatalo is a visit and you will be founded five years ago, which raises funds for nature conservation work. The purchase price is not reported.

The Pandatalo in the Ähtäri tourist area today received a new owner.

The Ähtäri pandas were returned to China early in November 2024. The Pandatalo built for them has been empty ever since. Snowpanda Resort Ähtäri Zoo Oy, who managed the Pandatalo, filed for bankruptcy shortly after the Pandas departure.

The acquisition has been made possible by individuals and companies through donations that the association has received over the years.

The shop has been massaged for a few months, says Haapakoski.

He does not tell the purchase price at this stage, but hopes that the doors of the house could be opened as soon as possible.

– We have the opportunity to create an adventurous and year -round learning environment that also enables facilities for new endangered animal species, says Haapakoski.

The Pandatalo restaurant facilities will be rented to Hotel Mesikämmen, which will be responsible for the café in the future. The souvenir shop in the zoo will also be transferred to these premises.

To begin with, the association declares the name competition to find the name of the name of the title competition and the protection of endangered species to the \”former Pandato\”.
