Vihinkivi is a large glacial boulder near Salo-Miehikkälä village, known in local legend as a secret wartime wedding site. According to oral tradition, a high-ranking officer and a local woman were married here during the 18th-century conflict known as the "Little Hat War." The stone symbolises endurance and hidden stories, as many such boulders in Finnish nature do. It’s a short and peaceful stop, best reached by bike and a short walk along the marked trail.
