So if you are convinced enough, let us tell you about some of the best national parks for hiking, walking and exploring! Read on…

Koli National Park

If you want an easy hike to start off with and also see how beautiful Finland is, go to the Koli National Park. If you are a regular hiker, the slopes may not affect you much, but for a beginner, they could be a bit steep. However, the view from the top is extraordinary. You can even opt for skiing rather than climbing on foot. We suggest in summers you can hike while in winters you can ski!

Pallas-Yllastunturi National Park

Another beautiful national park that will feel like absolutely a scene out of a Christmas card, the Pallas Yllastunturi National Park is a hiker’s paradise. You can trek along the tree-covered hills and soak in all the beauty around you. The best part about visiting this national park is that on clear nights you can get a good view of the aurora borealis. You can also spot a lot of wildlife here.

Lemmenjoki National Park

This one is a must-visit for all the experienced hikers out there. This park too can give you a good view of the Northern Lights and you can also book a guided river trip to explore it better. You can also do other activities such as boating and enjoy the scenic views.

Pyhä-Luosto National Park

If you like those forest treks, then this national park will be worth visiting. In winters the sky will give a crystal clear view of the Northern Lights, and you can also experience the midnight sun. Along with hiking and trekking you can also do skiing and other activities.
