    Cycling

    The Salpa Line in Askola is part of Finland’s extensive WWII-era defence line, with preserved bunkers that are open to visitors in summer or by request at other times. The site includes original concrete structures and trenches, giving a glimpse into wartime history. You can explore the area independently or join a guided tour for more context. The surroundings are forested with some uneven paths, so trekking or cross bikes are recommended. Bring good footwear if you plan to explore the bunkers on foot, as the terrain can be rough and damp in places.
