10의 이나리 호수가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Lake Inari is located in the Finnish part of Lapland. And we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights on the frozen lake in March 2024.

Lake Inari is the third largest lake in Finland and the largest in the Sápmi region. It is a vast body of water with a surface area of more than 1,000 km². In addition to native fish species such as trout, pollock, Arctic char, whitefish, grayling, perch and pike, the area also contains about 3,000 islands. The most famous of these are Hävdieennâmsuálui or the "cemetery island" and Äijih or the "Ukko stone" - especially the latter, which served as a historical sacrificial site for the Sámi people.

The Siida - Sámi Museum and Nature Center (Finnish Siida - Saamelaismuseo ja luontokeskus, Sami Siida - Sámemusea ja luondduguovddáš) is a museum and event center dedicated to the history and culture of the Sámi (proper name: Sámi) and nature in northern Finnish Lapland in Inari, Finland. From Wikipedia. The visit is really worthwhile. One day should be reserved in any case.

Really worth seeing insight into the life and culture of the Sami.

Museum of Sami culture and history well worth seeing and also comprehensive and very clear natural history information on fauna and flora and the geological history of Lapland. Very nice also: multilingual.

Lake Inari: sacred lake of the Sami, indescribably beautiful and diverse with extensive reed areas, small beaches, 1000 kl. Islets, jetties, rocky outcrops, shallow coves, craggy rocky shores... and always embedded in wooded slopes.

Inarijärvi is the 3rd largest lake in Finland and is (almost) completely frozen over during the long winter months. One of the islands is considered sacred to the Sami people. There are boat tours in summer and snowmobile tours on the lake in winter.

Sami Cultural Museum, with a small open-air museum behind. This is much more exciting than the exhibition in the building itself.
