Levi

Levi, Finland

Levi sits deep in Finnish Lapland, surrounded by vast forests and gentle fells that shift dramatically with the seasons. In winter, the landscape becomes a study in contrasts: bright snowdrifts, dark pines, and the soft pastel glow of the polar twilight. The air feels clearer, the horizon broader, and every hillside seems to invite exploration, whether on foot, skis, or with a camera in hand.

Though Levi is known for its ski slopes and lively winter activities, it still retains a sense of quiet that belongs uniquely to the north. Step just beyond the village centre and you’ll find frozen lakes, hushed trails, and open spaces where the aurora can unfurl across the sky with startling clarity. For photographers, Levi offers a rich palette — from crisp action shots on the slopes to serene, minimalist winter landscapes shaped by light and snow.
