Kaunispää Fell, Mountain summit in Saariselkä, Finland.
Located near Urho Kekkonen National Park, Kaunispää Fell rises 438 meters above sea level, offering panoramic views across Finnish Lapland and surrounding wilderness areas.
The development of Kaunispää as a recreational destination began with the establishment of Urho Kekkonen National Park, named after Finland's influential president in 1983.
The mountain area holds significance for the Sami people of Lapland, who maintain traditional reindeer herding practices in the surrounding territories.
Visitors can reach the summit via a paved road from Saariselkä, where they find a restaurant, viewing platform, and Finland's longest toboggan run stretching 1.8 kilometers.
The fell serves as a prime location for observing the Northern Lights during winter months, with specialized viewing facilities at the summit.
