Ruoppaköngäs

Youth spaces

Youth spaces

Whether you’re coming alone or with friends, there’s always something to do at one of the youth spaces!

Spend your time playing pool, board games, cards, or console games – the instructors will enthusiastically participate as well. If your mind is wandering and you’d like to talk to someone, let one of the instructors know. The instructors are safe, youth worker professionals. 

Youth services

By the youth, for the youth – Kittilä’s youth services

The youth services offered in Kittilä are incredibly diverse. Young people can take part in developing activities and services offered right from the planning stage. Youth services actively work to improve opportunities for young people to engage in civic activities. 

Northern Lights and where to find them

What are the Northern Lights? 

The Northern lights, or Aurora Borealis, are natural phenomena of light that appear mostly around the North and South Pole. In short, they occur when charged particles from the sun collide with Earth’s atoms and molecules. This collision releases energy that is seen as colorful light phenomena in the sky. 

Swimming and spa

Beaches and swimming areas

The beach in Kittilä Village is located on the shore of Ounasjoki River, near the road to Sodankylä at Sodankyläntie 42, 99100 Kittilä (about 500m from Kittilä Village). You’ll find changing rooms and a beach volley net there. Note that there is no lifeguard on duty, so swim at your own risk.
