Hanikka nature trail

The Hanikka nature trail takes you to the marine landscapes of the Soukka region. The nature in the area is diverse, ranging from black alder groves to rocky pine forests and spruce-dominated mixed forests.

The route runs through varied terrain on duckboards, through forests and on rocks. You can join the trail at any point and walk just part of it if you like. At times, the path runs on a rock surface. Wetter places are covered with duckboards. The hilltops and rocky shores offer great spots for taking a rest and enjoying a bite to eat.

The trail is best suited for the physically fit and the able-footed, and it is marked with signs. The trail is lined with 14 information boards about the rich birdlife in Kaitalahti, the Bronze Age burial cairns, traces of the Ice Age in nature, and the forest and waterfront environments. The bird-watching tower is an ideal place for aquatic birding.

Length: 5 km Difficulty: medium

In addition to Suinonsalmi, the trail can also be reached from Soukka and Soukansalmi, for example. By bus, the trail can be reached from the Suononsalmi, Soukankallio, Vesiniitty, Alakartanonkuja and Alatörmä stops.
