Visitor guidelines

All visitors to Finland’s unspoiled countryside are encouraged to appreciate and enjoy the beautiful and pristine nature that surrounds them. That’s why Metsähallitus Parks & Wildlife, municipalities, and many other organizations offer free-to-use or low-cost facilities in every corner of the country.
With thousands of kilometres of marked and maintained trails and ski tracks, thousands of campfire sites, picnic tables, covered cooking shelters, wilderness huts, and other great free or low-cost amenities the hope is that every visitor will grow to love the great outdoors even more and make every effort to preserve wildlife and pass on this deep appreciation to the next generation.
