Vuortenvälein

Vuortenvälein is a Finnish word that translates to "between mountains." It describes a geographical location situated in the space separating two or more mountains. This could refer to a valley, a pass, a saddle, or any area that lies in the intervening space between elevated landmasses. The term is descriptive and purely geographical, indicating proximity and position relative to mountainous terrain. It does not imply any specific geological formation beyond the simple fact of being located between mountains. The usage of the word is straightforward and literal, referring to a spatial relationship. In a broader sense, it can also be used metaphorically to describe being in a difficult or challenging situation, though its primary and most common meaning is geographical.
