Description

Anyone seeking an Arctic wilderness experience will love Lemmenjoki National Park. The 70-year-old tract over boreal forest is the largest park in Finland and one of the most extensive chunks of wildlands in all of Europe, covering more than 1,000 square miles. For the trekker, there are hundreds of miles of marked trails as well as free and open wilderness huts and more sophisticated rental huts with sauna and campfire places. The namesake of the park, the Lemmenjoki River, is a sight to behold as it flows down from the fells into a stunning valley of towering pines. Visitors can either rent a boat or take a tour. This is the place to find brown bear, wolves, and wild golden eagles as well as moose and reindeer.
