Hiking Trails {Five} To Get On Before Fall
The end of summer marks the beginning of an incredible season for hiking. The changing colors of leaves, cooler temperatures, and unique natural scenery are just some of the reasons why you should take advantage of the season and conquer the trails on foot. Here are five must-visit hiking trails before Fall:
Glacier National Park - Montana, USA With over 40 trails, this park offers a varying range of difficulty levels through one million acres of mountains, glaciers, and forests.
Enchanted Rock State Natural Area - Texas, USA A short trek delivers you to the top of a granite dome with stunning views of the surrounding wilderness.
The Narrows - Utah, USA This river hike takes you through awe-inspiring slot canyons, providing an unforgettable and unique experience.
Hetta-Pallas Trail - Lapland, Finland Here you have a 55-km trek through the Arctic wilderness. Combining stunning views of the Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park with the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) for an unforgettable adventure.
Dolomites - Northern Italy This scenic region is a hiker's paradise, with over 10,000 km of pathways through rugged peaks, meadows, and forests. For the love of hiking these are five I will be getting after with my wife in tow... Get out and hike!

The entire route has a classic track, but there is no separate class for classic skiers and the start is a joint start. The route goes through the beautiful fell land...

Day 36 - to Lemmenjoki (National Park)
The winter wardrobe was out this morning, and the day not forecast to get above 11C, and getting cooler as the week progresses.
There were far less people around at the hiking trailhead also, though just as I thought I was one of the few around, a rambling group of very heavy people arrived by bus.
My aim this morning though was the neighbouring fell to where I was yesterday, Palkaskero, on a circular trail just across the valley from yesterday.
There were a few people, all it seemed, walking clockwise.. don’t ask me why, but my habit is unless convinced otherwise, to go against the clock.
Sunny intervals, windy, the odd shower, conditions one might expect in the Lakes in about 6-8 weeks time.

Every few kilometres there’s an informative panel, translated into English and German, and certainly some of them are interesting.. for example..
There are quite a few white reindeer around. White calves, the board tells me, are particularly sleepy, so much so, that often you can quietly approach them and touch them without them noticing. Not much chance if you’ve a dog with you though.
The Golden Plover bird is common, with its nests in the boggy areas. Local legend says that it helps create an atmosphere in the fells, by bringing messages to hikers, making their mood sentimental with its melancholy whistle.
The Sámi used to believe that the raven was a magical bird. They thought that beneath its coal-black plumage was a white feather. Anyone who found this feather would gain magical powers. I’ve always time for the ravens. Through film and literature they have a bad name. In one of my favourite novels, O Caledonia, young Janet has a tamed raven, to which she tries to get it to say ‘Nevermore’, but all it says is ‘Nevermind’.. not quite the same effect to those she shows it off to.

Here’s one of those reindeer corrals that I mentioned yesterday, where they are gathered in mosquito season..

After lunch my original plan was to head to Hetta, at the far north of the Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park, but after some reading, I changed my mind. To hike anything decent at Hetta it’s is necessary to take the ferry across the lake, and as of this week, they are only running two times a day weekdays. Besides, it was quite a way off my route.
So I headed north, towards Inari on an unsealed road, the 955, and diverted by 10 kilometres or so, to Lemmenjoki, and it’s National Park.
Lemmenjoki National Park is on the far north border of Forest Lapland, just below the treeline. It’s a 2855 square kilometre natural wilderness ideal for reindeer farming, of which there are about 7500. The villages on the edge are inhabited by Sámi who make a living from farming and tourism.

Day 31 - to Äkäslompolo, Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park
If every town had the sort of outdoor activity access that Rovaniemi has Health Services would certainly benefit. There are tracks of several kilometres that have lights for the winter. Though cross-country skiing isn’t a cheap sport, people grow up with it here. As the snow comes they naturally change their bikes, walking or running shoes for their skis.
After an explore around the trails I got the bike out for the first time on this course. My hips have been particularly tight in the last few days, and I feared cycling would be troublesome, but it wasn’t so bad at all. It was a slow circuit in a low gear as I brought Roja with me, which I don’t usually do when cycling. He prefers to lead the way. I was quite happy for him to do that, choose the route, and all.

With fine cool weather it had been a splendid morning, and after a late lunch, I drove a couple of hours and and a couple of hundred kilometres north. The roads are noticeably less busy.
Tumblr media
I was indecisive about the direction north until the last minute. I had consisted heading north-east to the National Parks close to the Russian border, then up to Inari. But in the end I headed north-west to Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park where I’ll spend a few days before heading up to Inari. From the small town of Ylläsjärvi the route I will take will be close to the old Arctic Post Road, which I have been reading about. It was the first road north, and it’s original route now consists of a few bits of sealed road, but mainly gravel tracks, and forms a long-distance cycle route.
The Ylläs Ski Area is typically ruined by the downhill skiing. The mountain that the lifts are on looks unwell at this time of year, and it’s only west of it that is National Park. I’m parked in the overflow car park of the ski area, just as the National Park, and the hiking and biking tracks start. It was a cloudless sky on arrival at about 5:30 pm, and up at 450 metres above sea level, a bit cooler, at 14C, and no doubt will drop to just a few degrees above zero tonight. A reindeer welcomed us, inquisitive at first about the dog, but then took off.
This sort of weather is perfect as far as I’m concerned, it’s early autumn and the trees just beginning to change colour.
