Pohjanranta Birdwatching Tower overlooks a shallow bay of Lake Pien-Rautjärvi, an area known for its rich birdlife, especially in spring when swans and waders gather in large numbers. The tower is easily accessible and offers great views across the protected Natura 2000 wetland. Its lower level is wheelchair-friendly, and there’s an accessible toilet next to the spacious parking area. The surrounding landscape is classic South Karelian countryside, with a mix of fields and water. Cyclists can leave their bikes at the parking area and enjoy a relaxed nature break with binoculars and a camera.

Vaaranmäki lookout tower near Saari church offers wide views over the South Karelian countryside, making it a rewarding stop for cyclists exploring the region. The climb to the tower is short but slightly steep, so be prepared to push your bike if needed. At the base, there’s a teepee-style hut (kota) and a lean-to shelter, perfect for a break or picnic. The surroundings are peaceful, with forest and open landscapes stretching in every direction. It’s a good idea to carry some snacks and water, as there are no services at the site.

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.

The kota seems to be property of the local hunting club, but we spend the night without any troubles.
