ロッタのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

A super cozy hotel. You can start countless activities from here. The staff is incredibly friendly. There's something for everyone to eat. Hiking in winter isn't ideal, but that's no problem. There are plenty of other options.

Fantastic view over the national park

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.

Kiilopää Trailhead is the “classic” entry point for Urho Kekkonen National Park. The signs here invite you to "Escape into the wilderness" - and it's really possible - open fell country is only minutes away. The nearby trail centre offers accommodation, a restaurant/café, sauna and equipment rental, making this a very popular destination, year-round.

In Kiilopää National Park, you can find super nice trails stretching into wild fells and quiet pine forests, ready to test your legs and free your mind. You find clear signposts, good facilities, and that feeling of standing on the threshold of something big.

Luulampi Hütte is a beautiful lakeside rest area tucked away in the heart of Finnish Lapland. Set beside the tranquil waters of Lake Luulampi, it offers a peaceful and scenic stopover. The site is well-equipped, featuring clean toilets, a fire pit for cozy breaks, and a spacious hut with wooden tables where you can relax and warm up. During the summer months, a small restaurant is open daily from 10 AM to 4 PM. Luulampi is an ideal waypoint for a one-day mountain biking tour starting from Laanila, offering both a natural retreat and essential facilities in the middle of the wild.

This sandy section on the Kiirunapolku Trail comes as something of a surprise. It's about a quarter of the way up to the fell summit from the starting gate.

Several trail options present themselves at the Kiilopää starting gate, though a run to the summit of Kiilopää is surely a must! A run here provides tremendous views across the fells of the Urho Kekkonen National Park.
