Tag: Inarijärvi

  • We woke up in Ruka and cleaned the appartment. Started driving to Pyhätunturi (The Holy mountain). There was one stop on the way in the northside of Kemijärvi, there is a small village called Kostamo. Why is this village interesting?? It just happens to be the same name than my Family name…

    Kostamoroad & It was also chosen as the village of the year in 1997

    From Kemijärvi to Pyhätunturi it’s not too far anymore. The path to the Pyhäkasteen lampi & vesiputous (pond in the end of canyon and the waterfall) had been closed for the whole summer until this day. So we were about the first ones to see these amazing views!

    After this very nice hike we continued driving north. We were shopping first time in Sodankylä and then again in Inari. The second visit to shop was because we realized that we will be in Norway next day and there everything is much more expensive!
    We made a short stop in the top of Saariselkä and beside the Lake Inari.

    2 years ago when we were here it was very warm. Now it was +11 and little bit of raining

    We also found the place for sleep beside the Lake Inari.
    In the evening we were making food with our Trangia cooking system. The taste of food was terrible!

    Cooking the meal that came out with terrible taste!

    We realized that there was some taste of the fuel that we were using to make the fire in the cooking system. We put the question to Facebook to ask from other users did they have the same? Few days later we found out the reason.
    The route for the day 4 was like this:
