Uncover the geological wonders of Sukulanrakka, located just 25 km from Rovaniemi. Discover the 14 intriguing ‘devil’s churns’—distinctive potholes naturally sculpted by the elements. Among these are three of Finland’s largest potholes.
Marvel at the largest pothole, boasting a diameter of 8 meters and a depth of 15 meters. Observe two others with depths of 9 and 10 meters, gracefully situated atop the rocky slopes.
Understand how these remarkable formations were crafted approximately 10,000 years ago as the continental ice sheet receded, releasing powerful torrents of meltwater that shaped the terrain. As the rushing waters flowed through tunnels at the glacier’s base, they eroded the rock, removing soil and leaving behind impressive depressions.
Witness how the swirling eddies and boulders, created by these mighty flows, drilled into the rock, resulting in the enchanting devil’s churns visible today.
