Finland's Lakeside Gems

Northern Ostrobothnia's aquatic landscape is defined by its diversity, from the expansive Lake Pyhäjärvi to the unique Saarijärvi impact crater. This collection features the Julma-Ölkky canyon lake, significant man-made reservoirs like Uljua and Kortteinen, and an extensive network of ponds and wetlands across municipalities like Reisjärvi and Kalajoki. These sites illustrate the region's varied hydrology, ranging from deep glacial formations to shallow peatlands and regulated catchment areas.
