Finland<\/strong>. What's the story behind the lonely church in the wilderness on Lake Pielpaj\u00e4rvi? Well, it wasn't quite as lonely here as it is today. The church was located in the middle of the winter settlement of the Inari S\u00e1mi. The S\u00e1mi gathered here and spent the cold, dark winter months. They were joined by traders and tax collectors...and occasionally a priest. The Wilderness Church on Lake Pielpaj\u00e4rvi near Inari is one of the oldest buildings in northern Lapland, beautifully situated and accessible via a 9 km hike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
