What is Pyhätunturi

Pyhä-Luosto National Park (Pyhä-Luoston kansallispuisto) is a national park in Lapland Province, Finland. It was established in 2005 when Finland's oldest national park, Pyhätunturi National Park (established in 1938) was joined to Luosto. This makes Pyhä-Luosto Finland's oldest but at the same time newest national park. The new park covers 142 square kilometres (55 mi²).

The park's base is formed by Finland's southernmost, 12-peak tunturi line. The tunturis are remnants of Alp-like mountains of 2 billion years of age. 200-year-old pine tree forests grow on the hills. The highest tunturis are Noitatunturi (540 m / 1770 ft) and Ukko-Luosto (514 m / 1690 ft).

Maybe the best skiing resort in Finland for people searching challenges in skiing and somewhat peaceful surroundings. Those who like to party, there are better places in Lappland.

Pyhätunturi is a beautiful hill but the slopes aren't really that good and there are not too many of them either.

Another place one of a kind. A true taste of Lappland - almost no buildings can be seen during wintertime - but still a place for joy too!

Are there any services near Isokuru? And if there is, which are the best of them? I mean shops, restaurants, hotels, etc.
