Vaatimen kierros trail 18km

Koirasalmentie 1220, Kivijärvi

Located in Salamajärvi National Park, the Vaatimen kierros trail offers an opportunity to explore the diverse wilderness. The nature trail is 18 kilometres long and partly rocky, so it is necessary to bring good footwear and reserve plenty of time. Vaatimen kierros is a great all-day excursion! Along the way there are two camping sites, a campfire site and a wilderness cabin at Ahvenlammi, where you can book an overnight stay in advance. The trail passes through beautiful lake scenery, craggy cliffs and several bogs. The path is mainly on even land but some places are very rocky.
