Tour with minivan to Korouoma Canyon takes 1,5 hour. Moderate hiking 6km or 3 km. Korouoma is a 30-km-long fracture valley running from northwest to southeast on the border of the municipalities of Posio and Ranua. It is part of a fracture zone in the bedrock, which is hundreds of millions of years old. The entire zone stretches from the town of Rovaniemi and follows the Kemijoki River Valley to Autti and Auttiköngäs Falls and through Korouoma to Kuusamo.

After Korouoma Canyon transfer to Auttiköngäs Falls takes half an hour. Moderate hiking 4km. Picnic at the middle of route.. The area’s landscape is exceptionally rugged and grand. Several 30 meter steep streams freeze during the winter forming huge ice formations, offering fantastic views and play of colours.

Great place for making nature pictures all year around.

Amazing hiking into the nature. The waterfall was spectacular and the trip was magical. Our guide Oleg was the best guide we could have! Super friendly, kind and professional. We loved this tour and we strongly recommend it, but is not for young children or people with walking problems. The trip takes about 3 hours for 5.5 km with a lovely pic nic into the woods. If you ask you can also have a vegetarian meal! Hope to do it again one day, with Oleg!
Amazing hiking with outstanding guide!

We had an exceptional day together with Normund, our guide, who shared his eperience, knowledge and passion for nature and Rovaniemi with us. The tour was very well organized, he picked us up from our apartment and drove an hour and a half towards Korouoma Canyon. We hicked our way down through the forest, Normund knew very well the paths and made us enjoy the whole way. We saw the frozen waterfalls and took amazing pictures. Normund lit a fire in one of the shelters and prepared delicious sausages and marshmallows for dessert. Overall, it was a beautifull day and thank you Normund for making it happen.
