Waterfalls in Finland

Waterfalls in FinlandI am a big fan of the Scandinavian but chasing waterfalls in Finland is still on my wishlist. I once visited Helsinki and I loved this city. Finland is famous because of their education, their lakes and woods but there are also a dozen beautiful waterfalls in Finland.

The most famous waterfall, Kitsiputous, is located in Mala nature reserve, in the northern parts of Finland (Lapland) near the border with Norway.
