The natural wonder of Southern Finland

Fiskars is much more than a village. The area is unique not only in its history but also its nature. The verdant riverside is very Central European in its landscape, and the area's trails are easy to explore on foot or on the saddle of a mountain bike. You can spot several species that are rare at these latitudes, and there is even an oak tree that is as old as the Village itself.
