The most popular mountain resorts in Western Lapland on a waterproof outdoor map.
The outdoor map Ylläs Levi Aakenus 1:25 000 is printed on waterproof material. You can recognize durable Finnish outdoor maps by the yellow marking on the cover.
The double-sided map covers the southern part of the Pallas–Yllästunturi National Park and its surroundings on a more detailed scale than before. In the lap of the mighty Ylläs fell range are the villages of Äkäslompolo and Ylläsjärvi, and in the village of Sirka is the Levi tourist centre. The region has a comprehensive network of hiking, cross-country and mountain bike routes, which connect to the Levi routes through the Aakenus area. In the north, the hiking trail leads towards Pallas. The challenging mountain bike route between Ylläs and Levi is also marked on the map. For the first time, snowshoeing routes and maintained winter cycling routes are included in their entirety!
The map material is completely waterproof and can withstand almost unlimited folding, and it will not tear during normal map use. The properties are maintained even in freezing and hot weather. The map feels pleasant to the touch and is lighter than printed on paper.
In addition to terrain information, the map has marked huts, routes and other hiking services, as well as places to eat and stay. Ten attractions or experiences from the area have been added to the map, which are described in a few sentences in the map margin in Finnish and English. The map margin also contains the coordinates of all huts in the area and information about the exception. The scale is 1:25,000, which is best suited for the dense network of trails in fell centers (1 cm on the map = 250 m in the terrain).
