Veiki moraine

A Veiki moraine (

Finnish Lapland, a moraine type similar to Veiki moraine but smaller is known as Pulju moraine since 1967.^[5]

The disposition of the Veiki moraines reflects the last glacier movements before an ice sheet retreats,

Weichsel glaciation. Thus, the Veiki moraines of Sweden are a relict landform that has largely survived later glacier action.^[2]
