Our farm is our home, workplace and way of life.

Lapin Curly Talli is located in peaceful Fell Lapland countryside in the village of Raattama, located on the shores of the Ounasjoki River.The village landscape is dominated by the Pallas fell tops that have eroded over the millennia to become rounded in shape.The Pallas – Ounastunturi fell range is part of the approximately one hundred kilometre-long Ounasselkä fell range that starts in the north from the Ounastunturi Fell in the municipality of Enontekiö to the Yllästunturi Fell further south in the municipality of Kolari.Renowned as Lapland’s best known natural sights, the Pallastunturi fells belong to Finland’s national landscape.Find out more about our village at www.raattama.fi
