Kotamaja Café is located in Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park near Äkäslompolo/Muonio and is a popular rest stop in the middle of the forest. It is known for its cozy atmosphere, simple dishes such as soup and pastries, and the opportunity to relax by an open fire.

Here you can also get fishing licenses for the lakes and a section of the river and check in for the adjacent campsite.

Thanks to restoration work, the water in this Haaganpuro stream is clearer than before. The stream's biodiversity is rich and diverse. Rare sea trout come up from the sea here and up into the Maunulapuro stream to spawn. In winter, the graceful white-tailed deer fish dives from the bottom to retrieve water butterfly and white-tailed deer larvae. The hallmarks of a healthy, diverse stream are: meandering, rapids, clear water, shade from edge trees, trees and branches in the water, gravel and sand bottom, water mosses, benthic animals, fish fry, flying insects and the birds that prey on them. What can you see of them in this stream? Giant balsam grows in places on the banks of the stream. It is an unwanted alien species that spreads effectively and takes over the original flora. It is a good idea to eradicate giant balsam, for example, with resident weeds. A natural stream acts as a water purifier. In rapids, the water becomes aerated rapidly, and oxygenated water is especially important for salmonids. Numerous microorganisms living on the bottom are responsible for keeping the water clean. They convert leaves and other matter that have fallen into the water into food suitable for fish and large animals. Source: https://vihreatsylit.fi/maunulan-luontopolku/

Beautiful wooden arch bridge spanning over pirkkolantie and the tramway. Fun to ride over. Very smooth surface.

Easy trail along the ridge, ideal for a relaxed ride. The path is mostly smooth with some gentle climbs and descents, offering great views without being too challenging. It's perfect if you want to enjoy the outdoors at a steady pace.

A gravel wide road through the park. The trail is in excellent condition, and there aren't many pedestrians, even on weekends. It's a smooth, uninterrupted ride, perfect for getting into a good rhythm.

Here the trail opens up to a clear view of a tunturi—a rounded fell typical of northern Finland—reflected in a calm, mirror-like lake below. It’s a great place to stop, refuel, and take in the scenery before continuing.
