Route and access notes

A demanding point-to-point summer trail across the open fells of Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park between the Ounasjärvi shore near Hetta and Pallastunturi.

Planning this route

The refreshed connected geometry is 47.7 km. Metsähallitus describes the long-established Hetta-Pallas route as about 50 km; exposed fell terrain, long climbs and rapid weather changes require multi-day planning, suitable equipment and current park information.

Access and source limitations

Use the marked summer route and follow Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park rules for camping, fires and huts. Pets must be leashed. The Hetta end requires separate planning for the Ounasjärvi crossing or the operator's current access arrangement.
