If you dream of walking through a snowy fairytale forest, Riisitunturi National Park is the place to be. Located just a few hours from Rovaniemi, this park is famous for its “frozen trees” or tykky, which are trees completely covered in thick layers of snow and ice, creating breathtaking scenery.
Hiking here during winter feels like stepping into another world. The silence of the snow, the soft crunch under your feet, and the sight of magical landscapes make it unforgettable. The park also offers trails suitable for all levels, from short walks to longer hikes.
Riisitunturi is also a paradise for photographers. The snow-covered trees at sunset create some of the most iconic images of Lapland. Whether you’re a nature lover, a hiker, or a photographer, Riisitunturi will leave you with memories that last a lifetime.
