Arctic Circle Hiking Area is suitable for year-round hiking in the wilderness-like nature site within half an hour's drive from the city of Rovaniemi. The landscape is characterized by rugged perils of the Ostrobothnia, unspoiled and watery swamps, and the River Raudan with its beautiful rapids and lush coastal forests.
Forestry is also practiced in the hiking areas, however, taking into account the recreational needs of nature. The hiking area has a varied route with breaks, which provides good hiking opportunities and facilities for all ages. The Vika- and Vaattunkikönk area is one of the best equipped parts of the Arctic Circle hiking area.
