Home » Finland » Pyha
With the fourth biggest vertical in Finland, the Pyhä complex is located right on the slopes in thick woodland and dominated by the all encompassing Hotel Pyhätunturi. Pyhä (pronounced "poo-ha" and meaning 'Holy Hill' in Finnish) is located on the edge of the Arctic Circle and within the Pyhätunturi National Park, a wilderness area of dramatic scenery encompassing frozen lazes, silent snow covered forests and rolling fells.[more] If you're lucky you'll see the incredible northern lights during your visit. The resort was purchased in 1987 by the owners of another top Finnish resort, Ruka and has more than doubled its skier visit number since then. Given its northerly latitude the snow record is good and the resort has invested heavily in artificial snowmaking facilities. Pyhä is twinned with Jackson Hole in the USA. In common with other Finnish ski areas, lift pass tickets are cheaper than the Alpine norm, there are plenty of other activities besides skiing and boarding and it can be a tad cold and dark in mid-winter - but Pyhä is geared up for that and it just adds to excitement and romance of the place.
