Elfvik's bird watching tower
A birdwatching tower, in which the first level of the tower can also be accessed with a wheelchair or a pram.
The Elfvik birdwatching tower is an excellent place for observing the birds in Laajalahti. The birdwatching tower is located along the 700-metre-long Villa Elfvik nature trail. There is a picnic table next to the tower. The nature trail is accessible, and the first level of the bird watching tower can also be accessed with a wheelchair or a pram.
The Laajalahti nature reserve is part of the Natura 2000 network and one of the most significant bird wetlands in Finland. The Elfvik birdwatching tower is one of the best places in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area for observing birds. In the summer, grazing cows keep the seaside meadows open.
The parking place is at Elfvikintie 4. Laajalahti can also be easily reached by public transport, as the light rail tram 15 has a stop in Lahdenpohja. The stop is about 800 metres from Nature House Villa Elfvik. There are also several bus stops along Ring I, from which you can walk to Laajalahti.
