Hiking in Yli-Nampavast wilderness and breathtaking natural beauty. The area boasts picturesque hiking trails that meander through forests, alongside lakes, and amidst rolling hills. In this region, there are opportunities for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. The landscape here is characterized by dense forests of pine and birch trees, interspersed with clearings and wetlands. As you explore the trails in Yli-Nampa, keep an eye out for native wildlife such as wolverines, reindeer, elk, and various bird species. The bears hibernate. If you're fortunate to visit during the darker months of the year, Yli-Nampa is ideally located for viewing the northern lights aurora borealis. After a day of hiking, you might be treated to a spectacular display of these dancing lights in the night sky. One of the most appealing aspects of hiking in Yli-Nampa is the sense of solitude and tranquility. The remote location and pristine wilderness provide a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. In addition to natural beauty, hiking in Lapland offers the opportunity to immerse yourself in the local Sami culture. Learn about traditional practices, visit reindeer farms, and perhaps even sample local delicacies such as smoked fish or cloudberries.

Yli-Nampa is located in the north of Finland, specifically in the Lapland region. This region is located above the Arctic Circle and is known for its vast forests, lakes and un-spoilt nature. Yli-Nampa itself is an area in Lapland that is suitable for outdoor activities such as hiking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing and experiencing northern nature and culture. During the month of January, daylight hours are very short due to the polar night. This phenomenon occurs in areas above the Arctic Circle, including Lapland. We set out early in the darkness on our way to Luosto. In Yli-Nampa, the moon shines beautifully over the forest while the sun has yet to rise, but the sky is beginning to lighten. The snow in Yli-Nampa lies like an untouched white carpet, and the trees are draped in a thick layer of powder snow. Every step breaks the serene silence of the snowy surroundings; the crunching sound of fresh snow under my hiking boots fills the air. The trees bend gently under the weight of the snow, and nature seems to be in a deep winter slumber. The path is lined with pine trees adorned with ice crystals. The expanse of the snowy landscape stretches to the horizon, and the cold air tingles on my skin. The moment with the moon, surrounded by the white beauty of nature, is magical. It's not just a hike but also an encounter with the beauty of winter in Lapland. Photo of BieJee hiking and watching the moon in Yli-Nampa.

Wandelen in Yli-Nampa, Finland, biedt een prachtige en serene buitenervaring, vooral voor wie ongerepte natuur en rustige landschappen waardeert. Yli-Nampa ligt in Lapland, bekend om zijn uitgestrekte wildernis en adembenemende natuurlijke schoonheid. Het gebied beschikt over schilderachtige wandelpaden die door bossen slingeren, langs meren lopen en tussen glooiende heuvels door gaan. In deze regio zijn er mogelijkheden om te sneeuwschoenwandelen en langlaufen. Het landschap wordt hier gekenmerkt door dichte bossen met dennen- en berkenbomen, afgewisseld met open plekken en moerassen. Terwijl je de paden in Yli-Nampa verkent, moet je uitkijken naar inheemse wilde dieren zoals veelvraat, rendieren, elanden en verschillende vogelsoorten. Beren houden een winterslaap en trekvogels zijn vertrokken naar warmere oorden. Tijdens de maand januari, zijn de daglichturen erg kort vanwege de poolnacht. Dit fenomeen doet zich voor in gebieden boven de poolcirkel, waaronder Lapland. We zijn vroeg in het donker vertrokken op weg naar Luosto. In Yli-Nampa schijnt de maan prachtig over het bos terwijl de zon nog moet opkomen, maar de lucht begint al te gloren. Als je geluk hebt om tijdens de donkere maanden van het jaar te bezoeken, is Yli-Nampa ideaal gelegen voor het bekijken van het noorderlicht aurora borealis. Na een dag wandelen word je misschien getrakteerd op een spectaculaire vertoning van deze dansende lichten aan de nachtelijke hemel. Eén van de meest aantrekkelijke aspecten van wandelen in Yli-Nampa is het gevoel van eenzaamheid en rust. De afgelegen locatie en ongerepte wildernis bieden een perfecte ontsnapping aan de drukte van het dagelijks leven. Naast de natuurlijke schoonheid biedt wandelen in Lapland de mogelijkheid om je onder te dompelen in de lokale Sami-cultuur. Leer meer over traditionele praktijken, bezoek rendierboerderijen en proef misschien zelfs lokale lekkernijen zoals gerookte vis of bergbraambessen.
