Fall in love with the versatile Kukuljärvi hiking route

The Kukuljärvi hiking trail, which starts from the picturesque Strömfors Ironworks area, takes you through diverse landscapes of forest and lake. If you want a change from your familiar hiking trails, this route is a real treasure! The eight-kilometre walk is suitable for experienced hikers, as it contains differences in height and some difficult-to-pass sections. If you want to take a look at Branni’s Cave, you have to go a little more than a kilometre. Enjoy your lunch at the laavu (lean-to shelter) and take a dip in the fresh lake water. The diverse landscapes of Kukuljärvi lake will delight you and attract you back many more times.

Choose your own favorite route from the Portimo Paths

Portimo’s hiking trails run between the villages of Ruissalo, Kannusjärvi, Kitula and Metsäkylä. The route has a total length of 40 km. Plan your own route and enjoy the beautiful, varied terrain. Look from the starry observation tower over the forest landscape, swim in lakes and pools, spend the night at your own leisure in a log cabin or a tent.
