Kittila

The Ounasjoki River defines the setting of Kittilä — its southward course gives this Finnish Lapland centre a low, wooded riverside profile and has long linked settlements across the municipality. North of the Arctic Circle, Kittilä belongs to a land of forests, fells and long winters; the Ounasjoki is a major tributary of the Kemijoki river system. The Levi fell resort stands in nearby Sirkka, and the municipality also extends into the Pallas–Yllästunturi National Park area. Kittilä Church, designed by Carl Ludvig Engel and completed in 1831, provides a neoclassical focal point in the centre.
