About Saariselkä
Saariselkä is a small fell resort in Finnish Lapland, at the edge of a vast national park, with northern lights, husky safaris and Sámi culture nearby.
Saariselkä is a resort village in the far north of Finnish Lapland, well north of the Arctic Circle, on the edge of Urho Kekkonen National Park, one of the largest in Finland. Round, treeless fells rise from forests of pine and birch, and Kaunispää fell above the village has a lift and a view. Ivalo, with the nearest airport, is a short drive to the north.
