IMPORTANT: guys, when you go there, remember three things. 1. One is when you rent canoe, it is NOT for three people but for two. 2. Two is when you go by canoe, there are two lakes - make sure to CHOOSE the blue one shown in the picture. 3. Three is when you go to hike to see the canyon and the hanging bridge - do NOT take the main entrance route but the red one shown in the picture.

Now why do I recommend those three?

If you are odd number of people, like us yesterday - we were 5 and rented two canoe, it kinda made it uncomfortable for the fifth one to sit without the seat.

The southern lake is objectively boring in comparison with the right northern lake - amazing views are waiting for you there.

The left route is objectively more difficult than the right one: three times more difficult and wet.

Of course, the "brilliant" Finnish service will never tell you that. Be prepared. Otherwise, the place is beautiful, and if you do the right things - you will...

El Parque Nacional de Hossa, inaugurado en 2017 para conmemorar el centenario de la independencia de Finlandia, es un destino destacado por su naturaleza prístina y su relevancia histórica. Ubicado en la región de Kainuu, al este del país, el parque abarca vastos bosques de pinos y una red de lagos de aguas cristalinas, ideales para actividades al aire libre durante todo el año.

Una de las principales atracciones del parque es Julma-Ölkky, el mayor lago en forma de cañón de Finlandia, formado hace más de 2.000 millones de años. Este impresionante lago se encuentra en una fosa tectónica y alberga antiguas pinturas rupestres que ofrecen una visión fascinante de las prácticas chamánicas de épocas pasadas.

El parque ofrece una variedad de actividades para los visitantes. Los senderos bien señalizados son perfectos para el senderismo y el ciclismo de montaña, mientras que los lagos y ríos son ideales para el piragüismo y la pesca. Además, Hossa es accesible para personas con movilidad reducida, con rutas adaptadas y servicios que facilitan la visita a todos los públicos.

La historia humana de Hossa se remonta a los primeros asentamientos en Escandinavia, y las pinturas rupestres de Värikallio son testimonio de las creencias y rituales de los antiguos habitantes de la región. Estas representaciones artísticas, que datan de miles de años, ofrecen una conexión única con el pasado y enriquecen la experiencia cultural del parque.

Para llegar al Parque Nacional de Hossa, la opción más conveniente es alquilar un coche, ya que el transporte público en la zona es limitado. El parque se encuentra aproximadamente a 80 kilómetros al sur de Kuusamo, donde se ubica el aeropuerto más cercano.

En resumen, el Parque Nacional de Hossa combina paisajes naturales impresionantes con una rica herencia cultural, ofreciendo a los visitantes una experiencia completa de aventura y descubrimiento en el corazón de la...

Hossa National Park is a relatively new national park in Finland. It's located on themiddle eastern part of the country in Kainuu and Northern Ostrobothnia regions. The park is full of crystal clear cozy lakes, connected by streams and rapids. Other great features of the park are the ways of affections between gorgeous rock formazions, eskers and lakes.

Käymisen arvoinen paikka! Kävimme Julma-Ölkyssä kulkien idän puoleista reittiä riippusillalle ja takaisin samaa polkua. Meillä meni aikaa kahdelta aikuiselta n. 2h, kun välillä pysähdyttiin kuvaamaan maisemia, välillä kuitenkin reippaasti tarpoen eteenpäin. Ensi kerralla sitten koko reitti. Matkan varrella solisi ihanasti muutama pieni puro. Näkymät kanjonijärvelle olivat paikka paikoin upeat! Järvi kimmelsi mustana jylhien kallioden ympäröimänä. Riippusillan idän puoleiset kivi- ja metalliportaat laittoivat puuskuttamaan, joten evästauko ylhäällä oli paikallaan. Riippusillalta hieman etelään päin (idän puoli) löytyy kivi, jolta saa upeita kuvia järven näkyessä taustalla. Hyvä parkkipaikka ja siistit kompostikäymälät, jotka ovat esteettömät. Reitin lähtöpaikalla myös kioski sekä mahdollisuus maksulliseen veneretkeen järvelle. Yövyimme Karhunkainalossa telttapaikalla. Luontoreittejä jäi vielä näkemättä ja voisi olla kiva liikkua myös maastopyörällä.

Genuine, pure nature. Reindeers, birds, fish, you can see them, and even touch, if they allow 😁 Great roads and paths for hiking and cycling. Very nice watersporting possibilities like cayaking and canoeeing. Happy to be here, will return again!
