Kemijarvi

The landscape around Kemijärvi is a mosaic of boreal forest, lakes and wetlands north of the Arctic Circle, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. The town stands beside Lake Kemijärvi, part of the Kemijoki watershed, where water routes and forests have long supported forestry and transport. Kemijärvi is known as Finland’s northernmost town, and its railway station forms the northern end of the country’s electrified rail network. The Kemijärvi Church, rebuilt after the Second World War, is a notable landmark near the centre.
