Description:
Teijo’s attractions include peaceful lakes and forests, as well as historic ironworks’ villages where traditional crafts still thrive. You can get a good taste of Teijo National Park on a day trip visiting accesible trails at Jeturkasti and at Kariholma, but it’s also well worth overnighting at cosy lodgings in charming villages of Mathildedal and Kirjakkala. Jeturkasti trail strethes to the ancient sea shore of Jeturkasti. Assistant is needed for wheelchair users due to few ascensions and decreases. There are few benches along the trail. By the ancient shore there is a small viewing platform (1,5 x 4,2 m) at the end of the 10 m long and 1,05 m wide wooden boardwalk.
