We visited the fjells Riisitunturi (the most famous), Konttainen, Salla, Pyhätunturi and Kuntivaara. Most of these hills are either reserves or national parks and some have ski resorts close to them. It is difficult to describe a hike in these forests, you have to experience it on your own. But one thing is for sure, you need good and suitable weather. On Kuntivaara, which can be reached in a long day trip on snowmobile from Ruka, it was cloudy with some snow, the day before in Salla it was as blue as it can be. A boring cloud cover kills the atmosphere....
The hills are very exposed and avoid to go there if it is windy, even with face masks it is not easy to bear the wind chill!
