Välilampi Trail
The versatile hiking route passing through the scenery of Välilampi invites nature lovers to enjoy themselves.
Description
Välilampi Trail is part of the magnificent Kontionpolut trail network. Välilampi Trail invites all nature lovers to experience the many forms of our forests. The route includes forest roads and winding paths through pine forests, shifting to the lushness of birch groves and the open landscapes of forest management areas.
Along the route, you can rest at the lean-to located by the shore of Välilampi and enjoy the peaceful view of the pond. You can light campfires with dry firewood, which is part of the lean-to's equipment. The lean-to is easy to access and is especially popular with families with children.
Nearby Välilampi Trail is also the accessible home lean-to of Jaamankangas, an area made easy to navigate for everyone. Next to the home lean-to there is also an accessible toilet and woodshed.
The route is very suitable for walking, trail running, and mountain biking. The terrain is mostly flat but occasionally challenges even more experienced exercisers with quite steep climbs and descents.
