Suojuviejoki

Suojuviejoki is a river located in the northern part of Finland, within the Lapland region. It is a tributary of the larger Muonionjoki river, which in turn flows into the Torne River. The Suojuviejoki flows through a relatively remote and sparsely populated area, characterized by its boreal forests and numerous lakes.

The river's landscape is shaped by the Arctic climate, with long, cold winters and short, cool summers. During the winter months, the Suojuviejoki typically freezes over. The river's drainage basin encompasses a considerable area, and its waters contribute to the Baltic Sea watershed.

Ecologically, Suojuviejoki supports a range of northern wildlife. The surrounding forests are home to species such as reindeer, elk, and various birds of prey. The river itself is a habitat for fish species common to Finnish Lapland, including salmonids. The water quality is generally considered to be good, reflecting the undeveloped nature of the surrounding region.

Human activity in the immediate vicinity of Suojuviejoki is minimal. The area is primarily valued for its natural beauty and recreational opportunities, such as fishing and hiking. There are no major settlements directly on the riverbanks, and its course remains largely unaltered by significant infrastructure development. The river is a natural part of the extensive river systems that define the geography of northern Finland.
