Hike up a hill
For local people in Lapland, hiking up a hill is the classic day trip. We pack some food in a backpack, go hiking for a few hours, have a lunch break, and enjoy the views from the top.
On our day hikes, we usually go to Pallas or Särkitunturi. Pallas is located inside Pallas–Yllästunturi National Park, and Särkitunturi is right next to it. They are among the most beautiful and easily accessible hiking spots near Levi.
The hiking is relatively easy — the elevation gain is around 250–400 meters, and the total distance is 6–10 km.
Autumn is the best time for hiking
September is the best time for hiking in Lapland. The temperatures are cool, and the autumn colors are at their brightest. Nature is full of warm red and orange tones.
If you visit in summer, the hills are also great destinations because their cooler air and the wind often help keep mosquitoes away, hopefully.
