Hiking
From the tower you have a beautiful view of the wilderness and the old Sallatunturi fells in Russia. The Finish-Russian border is that close. To the north you will see commercial forests.

Hiking
The hiking trail has been made safer with gravel, planks and stairs. Depending on the weather, the trail can be walked with normal shoes.
