In places, the rocks in Isokuru Gorge rise almost vertically. At 220 meters it is Finland's deepest gorge. Geological processes have created this natural paradise. Wooden plank paths lead you safely over the loose scree.

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.
