Description

Koli National Park overlooks Lake Pielinen and is one of Finland’s most magnificent natural scenes. The view was discovered by painters in the 19th century and has since been referenced in numerous culturally significant pieces of art. The lake itself is situated in Northern Karelia, which borders Russia in the east of Finland. You can experience the view from the top of Koli National Park’s highest hill, called Ukko-Koli. It’s also an ideal spot for outdoor activities and hiking in the summer, and there are also lifts operating to the top year-round. In the winter, Ukko-Koli turns into a ski resort for advanced downhill skiing, with ski slopes 800 to 1,500 meters long.
