Trail Reviews

Michael Ficht (Wüste Zeiten)
August 20, 2025, Kanjonin kierros im Korkeakosken luonnonsuojelualue (Finnland)

Fancy a round of cardio and endurance training? Then this hike is a great opportunity. I have to climb 901 steps on impressive wooden stairs and platform structures right through the wild gorge landscape of the Korkeakoski. Don't believe it? Then go ahead and count them! The Korkeakoski Rapids in Maaninka are considered the highest rapids in Finland. It's often debated whether Korkeakoski is a waterfall or a rapid. It probably doesn't matter, as everyone considers the rapids to be unusually beautiful and high – a unique sight, a jewel of the water and forest landscape of Northern Savonia. Want more? You can find further information about nature and sights along this trail in my second hiking book, "Finland on Foot - Hiking between Helsinki and Lapland." There, you'll find over 500 pages of accompanying background information on 1,000 kilometers of hiking through many protected and hiking areas in Finland. My motto: "Walk - See - Understand." Contact me and ask!
