Finland View to Aarnilampi Lake near Luosto
575 steps lead up through the forest to the top of Ukko-Luosto. The climb is worth it for the wide views across the endless forests and rolling landscapes of Finnish Lapland, especially when the autumn colours are at their peak.
Photography Tips
Use a telezoom lens to compromise the framing and get the lake in a close distance for your image. Wait for the good afternoon light. In Autumn the colors are glowing even more.
