What is Levi like in September?
September is many people's favorite month in Levi. The fell landscape transforms into golden yellows and fiery reds — this is called ruska (autumn foliage). The Northern Lights season has begun and darkening nights offer excellent opportunities. The air is crisp and mosquitoes are gone. September is quiet — no winter mass tourism, but all summer activities are still possible.
What to do in September?
- Ruska hiking — fell trails in a blaze of color, especially Kätkätunturi and Pallas-Yllästunturi
- Northern Lights watching — season begins, long nights + often clear skies
- Ruska Marathon (September) — running event with shorter distances available
- Berry and mushroom picking — lingonberries and mushrooms still available
- Cycling and mountain biking — last summer trails
- Photography — ruska is a photographer's dream
