5.00Did a winter day hike at Riisitunturi National Park, and wow, it's absolutely stunning. It feels like stepping into a fairytale. The snow-covered trees look unreal, like something out of a movie. The trail was clearly marked and doable as a day hike, even in winter, and the views along the way were jaw-dropping, super peaceful, and fresh air. Our guide, Petri, patiently gave us an overview of the place and its history. Mind you, for a special place like this, you can't avoid taking nonstop photo opportunities. If you’re in Lapland during winter, this place is a must-visit.
Thank you for this wonderful moment
