The Pieskänjupukka scenic trail is about 1.6 km long, but requires a good level of fitness because the path ascends a steep slope all they way to the top of the hill. The climb is well worth it, as the view over Lake Miekojärvi (the Arctic Circle lake in Finnish Lapland) that opens from the summit is breathtaking. The trail begins at a point by the shore of Lake Miekojärvi that is also accessible by car (you can park your car in Pakisjärventie road). Symbols have been painted into the terrain to mark the path.
