Description

The nature reserve Juurakkomaa lies on the boundary between Övertorneå and Överkalix municipalities and comprises pristine coniferous forests. Along the stream Ahmaoja, which flows along the eastern part of the area, you can see waterlogged spruce forest. To the west, Juurakkomaa borders on a ridge of highly fragmented bedrock. The area is 1.7 square kilometres in size.
