Pohjanranta Birdwatching Tower overlooks a shallow bay of Lake Pien-Rautjärvi, an area known for its rich birdlife, especially in spring when swans and waders gather in large numbers. The tower is easily accessible and offers great views across the protected Natura 2000 wetland. Its lower level is wheelchair-friendly, and there’s an accessible toilet next to the spacious parking area. The surrounding landscape is classic South Karelian countryside, with a mix of fields and water. Cyclists can leave their bikes at the parking area and enjoy a relaxed nature break with binoculars and a camera.
