남부 사보니아‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪18‬개의 천연기념물

This is Finland’s tallest tree, a European larch (Larix decidua), soaring over 40 meters high in the Punkaharju Arboretum. Planted in the late 1800s, this giant stands as a testament to the arboretum’s long history of tree cultivation and research.

The Punkaharju Arboretum is a living showcase of diverse tree species from Finland and around the world, set within the iconic Punkaharju ridge landscape. Wander through well-marked trails surrounded by towering pines, rare conifers, and experimental plantations, all while enjoying views of the surrounding lakes. Whether you're a tree enthusiast or just looking for a peaceful nature walk, the arboretum offers a unique blend of science and scenery in one of Finland’s most beautiful forested areas.

Take a pause here on your hike and you will sit among boulders as big as the shelter itself. These majestic rocks infuse this rest area with a sense of calm and safety sitting among the forest.

A strenuous climb, partly via stairs, but worth it for the view.

This harju near Punkaharju is one of the most famous in the country! Rolling hills and lakes on both sides make it a wonderful and scenic road.

It’s a big tree that’s worth the detour.

Wonderful viewpoint of the lakes, you can take a boat to the island and take a nice circular hike there.

magnificent views, traffic not too bad (50 km/h speed limit and everybody else is here for the view as well), gently rolling hills, good asphalt
