The surroundings of Lake Saimaa, the largest lake in Finland and the fourth largest lake in Europe, create a wonderful environment for hiking. The unique nature, geological attractions and cultural history of the Saimaa region have received international recognition when Saimaa Geopark received UNESCO Global Geopark status in the spring of 2021.
