Finland’s nature trails, as well as hiking and trekking routes, offer a splendid array of low-threshold experiences for everyone who enjoys nature. A comprehensive variety of marked trails of different lengths traverse our country’s diverse landscapes: you can admire the deep peace of coniferous forests, the sparkle of clear lakes, and the unique beauty of marsh landscapes. Many routes are easily accessible and suitable for hikers of all ages.
Particularly appealing are the trails in national parks, which are well-maintained and clearly marked in the terrain to minimize the risk of getting lost. In national parks, the diversity and pristine nature of the wilderness come to the fore. In Finland, even outside the national parks, the hiking infrastructure is often well-designed: the trails have signposts, rest areas, and often lean-tos for taking a break. You can recognize a nature trail in Finland by the Finnish word “Luontopolku”.
