Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park in Sodankyla

Dramatically beautiful national park ❤️.(Pics from mid September with Fall colors)

Great hiking route through several fjelds. Not very demanding but have to remind that it is mountain route after all.

Very nice national park with great views to the surrounding countryside as the forest level here is quite low. Possible the spend the night in one of the open huts (tupa or kotawhen doing the crossing from/to Hetta. Meeting reindeers is quite frequent. Near Pallas Tourist Information, in southern part, there is also a hotel with small ski resort accessible by a road.

Reindeers welcoming me, beautiful “tunturit” and the cleanest air on earth. This becomes a natural sanctuary and best place to hike.

Nice place to be, I did enjoy myself

We did a 54km hike over 3 days with a tent in early September. Minus degrees during the nights. Luckily only the first day with rain. The rain showers were on & off so it would have been great to have a waterproof outer shell instead of separate rain clothes. And my shoes fell apart coz I didnt use them for a while.... Apparently you need to use them regularly to keep the soles attached.....I loved the scenery in Lappland. We started in Hettä had someone drive us across the lake and bring the car to the final destination Pallas. I will do it again!!!!

Ahh amazing place to Hiking,bicycleing,just enjoying the nature,many possibilities for everyone any age and style,love this Tunturin.🥰

An incredibly beautiful place. Lovely staff and excelent service. Highly recomended.

Absolut stunning magic place with a unique landscape. If you like quiet solitude, the natural sound of birds and creeks flowing, Its the place to be. The wide open range of lapland, the quiet but friendly Finish people enchanted me from the first moment I Set my foot in finnish soil.

Beautiful natural places, many huts and cabins freely available, go check out their website to know the location of each place. Youll find fireplaces and I really suggest you spend the night there !

Simply beautiful! Reindeer are super chilled!

Nature, nature, lovely undisturbed nature, clean air, wind and sound of streams. Drink clean, cold, revitilizing water from streams, listen to birds songs, follow reindeers in forest but be aware of them on the road.Despite of ocasional rain we had great time hiking and sleeping in huts/cottages and tent. Ruska is especially wonderful time to come to Lapland. And any other ti.e as well if you love nature and you want to escape city.Unfortunately my Telia connection was almost always working in here. Though putiing airplane mode can fix this problem if you want to enjoy yourself without getting disturbed 😊😁😌😎

Beautiful area and a great place for a casual hike with many paths to choose from.

The home of iconic, scenic 55k Hetta-Pallas trail in Finnish Lappland ♥️

Whats not to like? Wide open spaces, well marked trails and a good hut network.

Nice and quiet place to stop. Not so much food etc. where to choose but enough though.

The place is just amazing, no words, you have to get there and see yourself!

Good trails and cleanest air in the world. Next time we try even mountain biking

Its a beautiful place for snowshoes, skiing or walking. Take your time and dont make too much noise, youll see birds and small animals who arent afraid of coming close. You must stay until the sun goes down, the light plays in the trees, its gorgeous!

Nature virtually untouched under a magical blanket of snow. One can easily hire snow shoes and skiing gear. While the Ski Resort facilities are old, theyre still classically rustic and charming. Good value for money. Photographers dream.

Extremely versatile outdoor possibilities, downhill skiing, skiing, walking, snowboot walking, fatbike riding, snowmobile riding... You name it and its possible here. Thus scenery and nature is amazing!

Returned in 2019, for the fifth year in the national park. Why? I love x-crountry skiing, the routes are well maintained and the huts spread across the parks are amazing. This is a must, of course seen the northern lights on three nights was a wonderful

Snow shoe tracking with the Aorora Zone team. Really enjoyed it but hard work. The team work really hard and are very friendly. Would highly recommend it.

Really great place if you want to see scenery, loved the place, but if you go there, you should have really warm clothes. Its cold in there😬 brr.

Best natural park in Scandinavia. Privacy and activities available, depending what you want

Aitoa Lappia, jossa hienoa vaeltaa pientenkin lasten kanssa (Orava Avenue lähtee päätöstä ja vie taukotuvalle, jossa tulistelupaikka)./ Real Lapland with awesome fell views all around. Easy to hike with children also (check Orava Avenue ..it starts from the main Road before the hotel and leads to a cottage with camp Firenze place. Safe to hike as you can see faraway ..so few trees. Can see reindeers if lucky. Good place to snowshoeing also if not foggy weather. Hart to find overnight places as only one hotel.

Great place for hiking!

The oldest national park in Finland. With Ylläs as the largest offering in cross-country skiing tracks in Europe, great downhill slopes and sensational hiking routes as well as a lot of other program activities this area is a paradise for getting to know the Arctic wilderness. Pallas area on the other hand is more quiet, with rolling highland fells and great spots to retreat from the frenzy of the world.

cool place to see the nature

Its been said that this park has the cleanes air in Europe! Very nice choice to go for a walk to admire wildlife!

Excellent and peaceful location. Lots of great ski tracks in beautiful landscape!

Truly wonderful place to visit. Fantastic scenery and lovely slopes to ski and walk.

I only went here for a couple of hours during the winter, so I cant give you a full review of the parc. But from what I saw, its beautiful and well managed. You can do several things during the winter: cross-country ski, ski (there are several tracks!and hiking.

Great place to stay, ski, eat and drink. A must visit to the nature center and great spot right on the trail system while cross country skiing.

Winter wonderland. Glorious snowy wilderness. Perfect place to enjoy nature admire Arctic landscape, interact with the Arctic horses, huskies and reindeer

The most beatifull place on Northern hemisphere

Exellent place for both cross-country or normal skiing

We loved the winter walking and skiing here. Its so nice to stop at a Laavu along the way.

Amazing park in winter. Like ferrytale

peaceful park with a lot of facilities for skiing, walking, snowshoes, snowmobiles.

Tourist leaflets in most major languages.Good map wall displays of all the different seasons walks,cross country tracks etc.Good displays down stairs all about Finish life most hands on for the kids. Knowledgble staff on the tourist information desk,nothing is a problem. Small shop selling National park branded items.Great restaurant / cafe sandwiches soft and hot drinks.Hot lunch circa 13 euros soup breads hot drinks desert all included.Spent 3hrs here.Recommend taking a sledge you can get a good couple of 6-800m runs back to the village.

unbelievable landscape like out of fairy tales

Beautiful place during our winter holidays!!! ❄😉

Good hotel very clean and staff lovely and the view is to die for. Would recommend this hotel.

What a great view! Must be one of the most beautiful places in the world, at least in December.

Beautiful views, guide at Nature Center was very helpful and knowledgeable, enough shops, but not too many.

Wonderful nature, lots of trails for hiking, little huts scattered along the way for grilling saussages or sleeping.

Easy access to real wilderness. Fells and vast forest all around.

The hike across the park is a very nice route. The nature is very diverse on different altitudes. The hike is a bit demanding, because of long ascents and descents.

My favourite national park in Finland!
