The mysterious Eastern Gulf of Finland National Park
The Eastern Gulf of Finland National Park, which has so far largely remained a secret from the general public, includes more than a hundred islands and islets, each one more delightful than the previous, on whose beaches and forests you can really feel the embrace of nature, surrounded by the open sea.
The main island of the national park, Ulko-Tammio, like many other national park destinations, contains both breathtakingly beautiful seascapes and versatile archipelago nature, as well as things to see and do that are significant in terms of military history. For those who love to have adventures at sea, each of the islands of the national park is unique, so there are enough new experiences to last a whole summer.
Our beloved, mysterious and captivating Eastern Gulf of Finland National Park offers hikers endless unforgettable experiences. It is also home to numerous animals and plants, which over the years have learned to live in harmony with the people who visit the area, as long as visitors to the national park remember that they are guests of the local nature.
