The Santalahti Nature Trail winds through narrow forest paths before opening up to a stunning rocky coastline. Along the way, you'll be surrounded by dense woodland, eventually emerging to breathtaking views of the sea and numerous small islands. The scenery is truly picturesque, but caution is needed—some rocks drop steeply into the cold waters below.

A great place to seek shelter, make a fire and sleep at night. The wood was a bit wet, but we could build a pretty nice fire in the end.
