Strange name: alpine vegetation altitude??

The Fjell (Norwegian), Fjäll (Swedish), Fjall (Icelandic) or Tunturi (Finnish) corresponds to the alpine vegetation altitude of the Fennoscandian mountains

Kesänkijärvi Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The resting area at the eastend of the Kesänkijärvi is a nice place to rest.
It is well visited and the fire site is burns all day.
Don't forget to bring the sausages.
