Halti is a massif on the Finland–Norway border in the far northern Scandinavian Mountains, whose true summit (Ráisduottarháldi, 1,365 m) lies entirely within Norway. Finland's official highest point, Hálditšohkka (1,324 m), is not this summit at all but a lower shoulder of the same massif about a kilometer to the south, which does lie within Finnish territory — making Halti a frequently misunderstood 'highest point' claim. The area is remote and roadless, reached by a roughly 50 km trek from Kilpisjärvi in Finland or a shorter but rougher approach from the Kåfjord valley in Norway.
