オストロボスニアの天然記念物・トップ6

Along the Molpehällorna Nature Trail, several billboards explain nature and geology. Here you find a billboard explaining Striations made by continental ice sheet: This bedrock consists of mica gneiss. You can also see striations carved by the ice sheet on some rock surfaces, which is evidence of the fact that the ancient glacier flowed at least from the north-west and north. The fact that there are several striation directions shows that the erosion by the glacier was very weak, as otherwise the older striations would have been worn off by the new ones. The factors affecting the creation of the striations and the force of the erosion include, for example, characteristics of the materials migrating at the bottom of the glacier, flow rate, the forms of the land surface and the powerful pressure at the interface of the ice and the rock

Magnificent view over the archipelago in the Kvarken. We were lucky enough to get an introduction to the area from a guide.

The polder named Söderfjärden was formed hundreds of millions of years ago by the impact of a meteorite. South of Vaasa and Sundom, riding in this place will make you feel on Mars.

Here you feel like you've been transported back to the Ice Age!

Cannon Bay Cannon Bay is located just five kilometers south of the city center. The area offers beautiful hiking trails and has traces of the last ice age. In Cannon Bay there are both beautiful rocks and charming green areas. The place is very popular and many come here to take a dip in the sea. Do you have a picnic basket with you? This is the right place to enjoy a nice meal outdoors. There are two campfire sites and the city provides the firewood. There used to be a signal station in Cannon Bay. A signal station consisted of a mast with several yards. Each of the signs raised to the yards had a unique meaning. During operation, the station was always manned. From Cannon Bay to the city center, a passage was built in the forest that made it possible to observe the station. The observers in the tower of the town hall could in turn direct the cannon fire.
