Omschrijving
Kaitum old-growth mountain forest contains vast coniferous forests, wetlands and low fells covered by mountain birches. The nature reserve lies between Kalix and Kaitum rivers and is extremely rich in lakes and watercourses. The large mountain marshes Sjisjkaáhpi and Goddeáhpi are among the richest birdlife marshes in Lapland, hosting swans, geese, ducks and waders. The Ore Line cuts through the area in a north-south direction. If you wish to reach the middle of the reserve, take the train and get off at Sjisjka stop. From there, an easily hiked ancient trail leading to Nikkaluokta, and from it you can closely encounter Sjisjkaáhpi and its birdlife. A road runs as far as the reserve boundary at Kaitum Chapel in the south. From here too, a hiking trail leads to Nikkaluokta. The area is 900 square kilometres in size.
