    Hiking

    The Pyhänkasteenlampi Lake is crystal clear. The thick granite boulders are reflected in the surface and can be seen in the water. A very beautiful place and sacred to the Sami people.

    Hiking

    At the end of the Isokuru Gorge lies the 12 m deep lake Pyhänkasteenlampi, surrounded by steep cliffs. A creek flowing down through the Karhukuru Gorge joins the lake and forms a 17 m high waterfall. For the Sámi, this was a sacred place.
