Levi Reindeer Park consists of 170ha where reindeer wander freely during the summer months and where you can go trekking or Nordic walking. Guided expeditions introduce you to the reindeer and reindeer husbandry in the area, while a ski lift takes you to the top of the fell to admire the far reaching views of Lapland's wild nature.

The nearby 1020km² Pallas-Ylläs Fells National Park is the third largest national park in Finland. The park is a varied mixture of fells, woods and swamps and is said to have the cleanest air in Europe. The network of signposted walking and hiking trails covers a total of 320km, majority of which allows you to admire the majestic fells in the horizon (the highest fell in the park towers at 807m). Reindeer, bears and moose are common in the park, while wolves, wolverines and lynxes are occasional visitors.
