Kilpelänkangas
The Kilpelänkangas loop trail is approximately 3.5 kilometers long. It is easy to walk and suitable for beginner hikers, though it is not accessible for all users. The terrain still bears the marks of the fierce battles fought during the Winter War, as well as the extensive logging operations that took place in areas like Kuusijoki. In the landscape, you can still see trees damaged by shrapnel and the remnants of old trenches, now softened by nature.
Activities in the area include hiking, snowshoe walking, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, fishing, hunting, berry picking, and mushroom foraging.
