Thanks Polarbarts! Gleder has a nice channel awesome dog as well, very cool car journey I think that should be in my itinerary as well sometime :D

[@kaitlynx1388]

Great video. I watch a ton of outdoor videos on youtube and yours are definitely some of my favorite. No BS, great shots of the scenery, very useful and practical information and great locations. Please keep up the awesome work and we will keep watching your adventures. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thank you for the wonderful comment! I’ve got a great hike planned this October in Superior Provincial park. Should be exciting as I’m trying to complete a trail I have failed at twice before!

[@NickandRachel]

Nice video! That's place is beautiful! Hopefully I can get out that way one day and get some footage of the on to put up own the channel.

[@JB_FLYA69669]

Great video you have inspired me to go here thanks

[@FlyingSquirrelOutdoors]

Beautiful place, so different from what I'm used to (TREES!). Looks like a great hut system. Thanks for sharing this!

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

It's definitely a different experience without the woods. Lucky that I had the huts to make food and dry off!

[@MartinParyz]

Looks like a great hike, with the huts, the sauna, the cell service. Enjoyed seeing you hike. Have a great weekend. :))

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thanks M! More videos coming at some point.

[@DnSAdventures]

Beautiful area sir, such a sweet adventure! Thanks for taking us along on your journey. :) - Shane

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thanks Shane!

[@aeronautisch]

Looks awesome! "Surprisingly there is 3G internet throughout most of the trek." hahaha I did not expect that either. And the meal at the end looked delicious. Great vid

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thank you! Really excited to head back there sometime again!

[@raijakoski9787]

Wonderful trip! Great video!

[@ritzyllama]

Super cool vid - bet that trip was amazing!

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thanks, it was! Such nice hiking there and on the turn of the season it wasn’t so busy. So satisfying to get to the boat on your way out and have that huge buffet meal.

[@kimbledos]

Great video,

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@WalkerOutdoors]

I agree get everything ready before dark otherwise it's a pain in the ass great video just stopped in to show support and hit the like button thank you for your support as well

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thanks Walker. You bet, the worst is if you forget where you put your lamp! Keep up the good work at the old farm!

[@HikeCamp]

Great trip and hike👍👍 Very open like much of where I live... Except for our mountains of course.

[@nepalesenomad1195]

enjoyed watching the hike ! thanks for sharing :)

[@21Swayzee]

That is awesome. My family heritage is from Estonia..where I have spent some time. They all talk about amazing fishing trips in Finland. They don't quite make it as far as Lapland....but man it is an area I've always wanted to check out. Got to love the saunas!

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

I'v always wanted to head to Estonia, it seems like a great place. Unfortunately I am never in the area long enough to explore properly! Such an easy boat ride as well!

[@21Swayzee]

Definitely an easy boat ride. I really like the Island of Sarreemma..my grandparents are from that area. Beautiful beaches... kind of reminds me of St. Joseph Island, just outside of the Sault.

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

That’s great I will check it out if I get the chance!

[@FrankDemonteFDTV]

Cool video I’m new to your channel and I am liking it so far thank you

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Thanks Frank! I’m currently travelling around the world for a year hope to get some woodsmen content out but we’re making videos here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGjOZ5awmJ2No8U going to have some good videos of hiking in Patagonia Peru And Nepal!

[@woodsmenofficial2020]

Cool stuff! Finland is a place we wanna visit some time soon :)

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

It’s a great place. I really like September there August is good as well and a bit warmer! You must try a public sauna in Helsinki if you go. A real Finnish cultural experience :)

[@janski1982]

I’m 38y old finnish guy and I’m embarrassed to say I’ve never been to Lapland 😒. But most definetely will go there someday.

[@KuukkeliBushcraft]

Hello from Hetta, next time you're passing pop into the local husky farm (my workplace) and say hello 😊.

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Wow that will be fun! I will make sure of it even if it’s in a few years time :)

[@DetenkleFriluftsliv]

Looks like you had a great time. Finland is very beautiful. Thanks for sharing! Be glad you went there in late summer. The mosquitoes there can be REALLY annoying! :-D By the way, have you been to Norway? I walked Norway lenghtwise a few years back. I´m working on a movie of it. It will take you through most of Norway´s national parks. Hopefully I will have it done in january 2019.

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Haven't been to Norway yet, planning a special trip in a few years! Wow, look forward to the video! Should be an epic one :D

[@aeronautisch]

Your comment peaked my curiousity.. had to check out your KZbin channel, needless to say, I subscribed. I like your videos, really zen! I'm planning on hiking in Iceland in 1 or 2 years from now. Your channel is pretty inspiring!

[@Joo-y7j]

Finland welcomes you warmly. Tervetuloa💙 Translation: Welcome.

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Kiitos!

[@lewissmith5759]

how does one book this trail? do you just rock up or is there a website?

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Hey Lewis, open huts are walk up and free to use! But there is an etiquette rule when they fill up. If there is no room in the hut and someone arrives, they have the right to stay in the hut and the first people to have arrived must move outside. I told the front desk where I was going, make sure to book the Sauna it was the best part of the trip. For the reservable huts you can reserve them at the visitors centre and you may be able to call ahead. "There are three reservable wilderness huts in the Pallas area. Beds must be reserved in advance. Reservations for the Pallas huts can be made at Pallastunturi Visitor Centre. Keys can be picked up from Pallastunturi Visitor Centre or Fell Lapland Visitor Centre. Bed places cost 11 euros a person/night" www.nationalparks.fi/pallas-yllastunturinp/services

[@nuoutdoor]

[@Ricky911_]

It's January, you are in the Arctic Circle and you ain't even wearing gloves??

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Haha I was there in September. Have to save the cross country ski camp video for a January trip!

[@are3287]

Pahakuru means evil gulch, fun fact.

[@wannabewoodsmen7622]

Haha! I did not know that.

[@yuriklaver4639]
