Lake in the middle of the park, with wilderness hut, rental hut and sauna. Popular stop at the foot of Sokosti.
A nationally valuable cultural heritage area. The Finn Jooseppi settled here in 1910 (the name means "Joseph at the border") with his female companion.
35 km trail through Sompio to Kiilopää, Kakslauttanen or Laanila, part of the former trail between the Bothnian Bay and the coast of Finnmark (Finnish: Ruija) at the Arctic Ocean. It is mentioned as early as in the 16th century, but fell in disuse at the beginning of the 19th century. This section is now a marked hiking trail. Some of the historic markings (cairns, i.e. stone heaps) remain and must not be touched. The leg through Sompio is tough, with quite rough terrain. As camping is not allowed here, the 15 km leg between Sompiojärvi and the Kaptukaislampi lean-to shelter, with a 2×1.5 km sidetrip to the top of Terävä-Nattanen, has to be done in one day (there is a campfire site for a break before or after the sidetrip). Otherwise there are lean-to shelters 9–12 km (5.5–7.5 mi) apart. The trail crosses the road and some trails of the Kakslauttanen-Kiilopää area, allowing some variations in that end. Sompio is a strict nature reserve, leave no trace and keep to the trail.
The steep and rocky ravine was created by the Ice Age. There is a day hut by the name near the southern end of the kuru and an old one a few hundred metres farther away, from about 1900, probably built by gold diggers.
Includes all the common habitats of the national park, in a smaller scale. It is on the border between the Forest Lapland and the Peräpohjola vegetation zones and the Nattaset fells rise from the spruce and pine forests to above the tree line. There is a hiking trail through the reserve to Kiilopää and Laanila, and a shorter circle trail leading by the Nalijoki river and to the Pyhä-Nattanen fell top.
Fell by Saariselkä. Good views. East of the fell is the canyon Pääsiäiskuru.
