Didnojohka, Norway

When you check hiking maps about Käsivarsi Wilderness Area, there is only one hiking trail that goes from Kilpisjärvi to Halti (this trail is called Kalottireitti). However, if you read finnish hiking forums (for example relaa.com), you will soon learn that there is also another way to get into Halti. This trail starts from place called Didnu in Norway (or Didnojohka, if you look it up from a map). Best way to reach it is to take a taxi from Kilpisjärvi and ask them to give you a ride. It will cost something like 30-40 euros/group.
From here our trail will take us to 12km hike to Lossujärvi, which is already in Finland, but more about that in future days.
