2 Nature Trails

3 – 4 hours

coffee and snack on the campfire included | transport from Kuhmo center/Hotel Kalevala included

Visit the beautiful nature of Kuhmo and learn a lot about nature and history on this easy tour! We will visit 2 different nature trails only 15 minutes away from the center.

First we go to Lauttavaara nature trail. Here we see an old forest where we can observe sings of the ice age, plants and perhaps even animals. The trail is 2 kilometers long.

Next we move to the Lentua rapid. This is the largest free rapid in Kainuu area and we can observe it really close from a wooden duckboard. You will learn at the same time some exiting history of using the rapids as transport route for tar. The walk is about 1,5 kilometers.

We will also go to a laavu shelter next to the rapid to make a fire. We will prepare coffee and a snack to enjoy.
