National parks are conservation areas established for the purpose of protecting the diversity of Finnish nature. National parks are meant for enjoying nature by camping, hiking, skiing or biking.
View the the vast, flat landscapes of Ostrobothnia from the top of Lauhanvuori, situated in the national park and surrounded by mires. When the weather is clear, you can even see the sea from the tower at Lauhanvuori. Cross ancient berms along duckboards, take a refreshing break by clear springs, listen to the stream as it purls and admire the sandstones and rock formations.
