The information hut is located directly at the parking lot in the extension of the suspension bridge. Here you can find some information about the flora and fauna of the area and hiking opportunities.

Very nice. For swimming partly too strong a current. Parking is great for a camper for one night

Damp sections of the path are bridged by boardwalks. They were in good condition when I visited in July 2023 👏

Vaattunkivaara Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The tower is not very high, but still offers a good view north-west over Raudanjöki.

The barbecue area is a bivouac area with everything your heart desires. Dry toilet (separately for men and women!), shelter, seating, fireplace, hut with firewood (with ax and shovel!) and a boardwalk to a water point about 50 m away. Everything is in good shape 👏 I think you can spend a quiet night here and not be disturbed by hikers.

Here you can not only hike well, but also "stand free" for a night if the nearby road doesn't bother you too much 🚐👍
