Leave behind the hustle and bustle of everyday life and step into the embrace of the wilderness! The best part of the Fell Challenge is the tranquility of northern nature and the unparalleled sense of freedom offered by the vast fell landscapes. The Fell Challenge is suitable for both beginners and seasoned hikers, with guides accompanying the trek, and the journey can be undertaken solo or in a group. Before the hike, participants have the opportunity to attend an online information session where they will go over routes, meals, and equipment with the guides.
The Kiilopää Ski Event, held on December 13, 2025, takes place during the polar night, where headlamps and moonlight guide skiers through the silence of the wilderness. Whether the sky is filled with stars or the northern lights, skiing in Urho Kekkonen National Park is a truly unique experience!
The Fell Challenge is a hiking event in Urho Kekkonen National Park. The event can be your first hike in Lapland, a chance to test out longer daily distances, or a celebratory hiking week with like-minded people in the wilderness of the fells. The next event will be held in June 9–15, 2026.
