Highlights
Discover the geological marvels of Sukulanrakka, nestled just 25 km from Rovaniemi. Explore the 14 fascinating ‘devil’s churns’—unique potholes carved by nature itself. Among these, three of Finland's largest potholes. Admire the largest pothole, which is 8 meters in diameter and 15 meters deep. See two others that measure depths of 9 and 10 meters, perched majestically atop the rocky slopes. Learn how these incredible formations were sculpted around 10,000 years ago as the continental ice sheet melted, unleashing powerful torrents of meltwater that shaped the landscape. As rushing waters surged through tunnels at the base of the glacier, they eroded the rock, clearing away soil and leaving behind striking depressions. See how the swirling eddies and boulders created by these powerful flows drilled into the rock, resulting in the captivating devil's churns seen today.

About Rovaniemi
Rovaniemi, on the edge of the Arctic Circle in Finnish Lapland, is a river city known for Santa Claus Village, northern lights, reindeer and deep snow.
Rovaniemi is the capital of Finnish Lapland, set where the Kemijoki and Ounasjoki rivers join, just south of the Arctic Circle. The town was rebuilt after being burnt in the Second World War, and its street plan, drawn by the architect Alvar Aalto, is said to echo a reindeer's antlers. Arktikum, a museum and science centre, tells the story of life in the Arctic, and a lit footbridge known as the Lumberjack's Candle crosses the river.
