the home of many of Southern Finland’s endangered and rare species. It also has
diverse recreational grounds which attract many visitors. The heritage landscape
and the forests surrounding it in the Byabäcken River Valley are located on the
northeast edge of Sipoonkorpi. One of many interesting things in the area to see
is traditional southern Finnish farm lands.
