Nature and culture tourism in the Tana Valley and the fell uplands

The  northernmost municipality in Finland welcomes you to the land of Sami, which in summer offers you a natural treatment of light 24 hours a day and serene peace in the twilight of the kaamos time in winter. The wilderness areas of Paistunturi and Kaldoaivi present a treeless wild fell landscape which forms a sharp contrast with the verdant valley of the Tana River. The three centres of the municipality provide everything you need for your daily life and much beyond that. We wish you warmly welcome to spend your holiday in hospitable Utsjoki!
