Laamasenvaara Memorial – Winter War Tour

A memorial stone was erected at Laamasenvaara by the Kainuu Frontier Guard Guild. It was unveiled on 15 June 1996.

The site is easily accessible, but requires a walk of about 3 kilometres (1.9 miles). A forest path leads through Laamasenvaara, starting from Saunajärventie (Road 9111), at the western end of the hill. The path leads back to the road about 2.5 kilometres (1.6 miles) further east, close to the edge of the border zone.

There are no actual stopping or parking areas at Laamasenvaara, but there are some forest road junctions along the Saunajärventie Road where you can stop.

There is an information board at the west end of the path leading to Laamasenvaara.
