Established in 2002, Oulanka National Park is a designated area under the World Wide Fund for Nature's PAN Parks initiative and shares a border with Paanajärvi National Park in Russia. The park is rich in diverse wildlife and plant life, particularly notable for its conservation of reindeer and several threatened species, including bears, wolverines, and lynxes. The Oulanka River Valley, shaped by the last Ice Age, offers an ideal habitat for these rare species, making the river ecosystem unique.
