Loma-Koli Slopes

Highlight • Structure

... or is that over? The lighting is still there, but nature is reclaiming the slope. The overview board for the ski area fell over and rotted 🤔

Sandy Beach on Lake in Finland

Highlight • Beach

I'm always happy when access to the lake isn't blocked by private property. Here the hiker has free access to the lake and a beautiful sandy beach 🏖

Serene and secluded sandy shore

Highlight • Beach

There are countless secluded sandy coves along the shores of Lake Pielinen. Imagine taking a dip if the weather is hot, or you could just wade in the water.

Access to the banks of the Pielinen is usually blocked by private land or dense pathless vegetation. It's different here: free access to a small but nice sandy beach 👏 Hikers pack their swimming trunks 👍

Steep Stairway to the Lake

Highlight • Lake

A steep winding staircase descends 83 steps to the water and then - nothing but a few rocks and a lovely view of the lake; no beach and no place to stay 😳
