Kaldoaivi Wilderness Area, Wilderness area in Lapland, Finland
The Kaldoaivi Wilderness Area spans 2,924 square kilometers across northern Finland, featuring deep river valleys, gentle fell slopes, and numerous lakes and streams.
The Finnish government established Kaldoaivi as one of eleven wilderness areas in Lapland during 1991, marking a significant step in environmental protection.
The Välimaa Sámi Farm within the wilderness area represents traditional reindeer herding practices and maintains connections to indigenous Finnish culture.
Visitors can access multiple hiking routes including the Sevettijärvi-Pulmanki Trail, with open wilderness huts and designated campfire sites available throughout the area.
This wilderness contains Finland's northernmost pine forest and houses birch trees that reach ages of 300 years in its diverse ecological zones.
