Pulju Wilderness Area ("Puljun erämaa-alue") is a wilderness reserve in the municipalities of Enontekiö and Kittilä in Lapland Province, Finland. It is governed by Metsähallitus and covers 614 km² (237 mi²). It was established in 1991 like all the other wilderness areas in Lapland Province.

The Pulju area is especially known for its peculiar landscape forms from (probably) the latest ice age: worm-like winding Pulju moraines. They are situated about 7 km north from the Pulju village.
