Virolahti provides essential services and its main attractions include the Virolahti Bunker Museum and the nearby Harju manor, which offer insights into the region's rich history. Additionally, the Virojoki River flows through the town into the Gulf of Virolahti, a bay in the northern part of the Gulf of Finland, which is shared by Finland and Russia.

Harju Manor offers rural charm and educational heritage, making it an ideal stop while exploring the Finnish countryside. Here, the scenic Salpa Line trail passes through the estate, offering a glimpse into Finnish war history amidst tranquil parklands and forests. The manor also provides accommodation and a range of activities, including guided tours and horse riding, ensuring a memorable and enriching experience.

Syväjärvi beach is a small lakeside spot located in Salo-Miehikkälä, ideal for a short rest or a swim on a cycling trip. The beach offers easy access to the water and a peaceful atmosphere, surrounded by forest and typical rural landscapes. It’s not a developed swimming area, so facilities may be minimal or absent. The nearby roads and tracks are suitable for trekking and cross bikes. If you plan to stop for a swim or picnic, bring your own supplies and be prepared for natural conditions.

Hulkkianjärvi is a small, shallow lake in the village of Salo-Miehikkälä, covering 20.2 hectares with an average depth of just 0.8 metres. It was nearly overgrown before a successful restoration project in 2009, when it was drained and later refilled with help from locals and the ELY Centre. The lake now supports a healthy fish population, mainly bream, roach, perch, pike, burbot, and their hybrids. Surrounded by forest, fields, and marshland, it offers a peaceful nature stop along local cycling routes. Access is easy, but if you plan to walk along the shore, waterproof shoes are a good idea due to wet ground.

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.

Pitkäkoski Sawmill is the third oldest sawmill site in Finland, originally founded in the 1720s and permanently established in 1738. Over the years, it changed owners several times, becoming an important local employer during the 1940s under Väinö Vuorela. Although sawmill operations ended in the mid-20th century, a mill continued to operate on the site until the 2000s, and the power plant still produces electricity today. The area has historical value and sits near a river and dam, making it a scenic stop for cyclists. For safety reasons, visitors must not enter the "Tammen Bridge" above the dam.

The Salpa Line Museum in Miehikkälä presents the history of Finland’s eastern wartime defences through exhibitions, guided tours, and a large outdoor museum built on rugged terrain. Visitors can explore reinforced concrete bunkers and deep rock-dug fortifications, either independently or with a guide. The area is partially accessible by gravel and paved paths, though some sections involve stairs and uneven ground. A short film introduces the background of the Salpa Line, and the on-site café offers fresh pastries and local products. Cyclists can combine a visit with a ride along the Salpa Trail, and secure bike parking is available near the entrance.

This unfinished Salpa Line site on the north-eastern side of Soikonvuori features a large accommodation tunnel and two rock-cut machine gun emplacements. The 85-metre tunnel was intended to house 80 people, with planned observation and defence structures that were never completed. The entrance shafts, including one steep vertical shaft from the cliff top, remain unfinished and partially filled with sand. The site lies in a mixed forest area and is accessible via marked paths, though the terrain may be uneven and rocky in places.
