The wide-ranging Luosto Nature Hiking Trail showcases the best natural features of the Pyhä-Luosto National Park. The trail will take you up and over the fell ridge to Luosto's 400-year-old forests, where the pines are particularly short at this high treeline, but also thicker. At the Pyhänlatva aapa mire, the trail runs along duckboards, from which you can admire the beautiful cranberry flowers or see if the English Sundew, a carnivorous plant, has captured its prey. And you can take a lunch break at the Pyhänlatva lean-to when it's time to rest. The open marshland of the Pyhänlatva aapa mire offers a splendid view of the Ukko-Luosto fell landscape. You can also see how hay was made in the old days on a peatland meadow. Visitors climbing to the top of Ukko-Luosto will be treated to a magnificent view, particularly the five summits of the Pyhätunturi fell range. From the lookout platform at the top of the fell, you'll be able to appreciate the enormous scale of the Pyhänlatva aapa mire and Siurunaapa aapa mire. Stairs will take you down the blockfields on the slopes of Ukko-Luosto, also affording a gorgeous view of the the rocky slopes of Orresokka. The trail starts at Luostonportti for those approaching from the ski slopes, first passing by the Tikkalaavu lean-to. Part of the trail follows along ski tracks, while other sections are conventional, rocky paths. It is easy to follow the trail - it is marked by green triangles on trees and brown metal guide signs at crossroads.
