The aim of Koli National Park isn't to reserve wild nature but traditional agricultural heritage is cherished in Koli. Some fields are slashed, burnt and re-cultivated and hay is cut yearly. Traditional Finnish breeds of cows and sheep are grazing in the meadows of Koli.

Koli on Pohjois-Karjalan korkein vaara Pielisen rannalla Lieksassa. Koli on lähinnä valkoista kvartsiittia, ja sen laella on suuria puuttomia, paljaita valkoisia kalliopintoja, jotka tuovat mieleen lumihuippuiset vuoret. Kolin tärkeimmät huiput ovat Ukko- ja Akkakoli, jotka on ehkä nimetty vanhojen jumalien mukaan, sekä Paha-Koli, jossa on jyrkkä seinämä. Kolin korkein kohta on Ukkokolilla. Kolin vaaran juurella on Kolin kylä. Alueella sijaitsee Kolin kansallispuisto. Koli on keskeinen kansallismaisema ja maisemanähtävyys. Vuoteen 1973 asti Koli sijaitsi Pielisjärven kunnan alueella, joka siinä yhteydessä yhdistyi Lieksan kauppalan kanssa Lieksan kaupungiksi.
Kolin korkeus merenpinnasta on 347 metriä.
