The Valklampi boardwalk takes you across the marsh surrounding Iso Valklampi and Pieni Valklampi ponds. The nature trail is about 4 kilometres in length altogether, about 1.5 kilometres of which are boarded. The trail also crosses the hill ridge that surrounds the marsh.
The Koskikaran kierros trail starts at the Koskikara school in Rutalahti and follows the course of the Rutajoki river for most of its route. Along the trail, you’ll find both roaring rapids and gently steaming river bends, as well as a few detours away from the riverbank up into the woods. At the Porraskoski rapids bridge, a path links this trail to the Leivonmäki National Park.
At Tarhalehto, you’ll meet a large number of animals up close, and even get to feed and pet them. The farm has a playground, a Lapp hut, a café, clubs, camps, horse riding and a lovely old farmyard with old buildings and machinery. Located only a 30-minute drive from Jyväskylä with good transport connections, the farm is also reachable by bus.
