Auttiköngäs
Getting around: Near Posio, roughly 130km east of Rovaniemi; a car is necessary.
Hours: Open at all times, no fee; winter access needs snow gear.
Auttikongas is a scenic rapids area on a small river in eastern Lapland, with a short marked trail and viewing points over tumbling water — modest but genuinely attractive rather than a dramatic large waterfall.
Best for people already traveling through eastern Lapland rather than a dedicated day trip from Rovaniemi.
