The iconic Kiilopää (546 m) is one of the best-known fell tops in northern Finland. It's a classic rounded fell (tunturi) with an immense sense of space as the views are so far-reaching across the open terrain.

Access is fairly easy, with a wooden staircase and gravel path on the lower sections.

It's an easy hike and you will be rewarded with an magnificent 360 degree view over the fjell.

The hiking trail leads vertically up to the summit from the mountain station. Wooden stairs have been built for sneaker tourists. Beautiful view of the landscape.
