Itinerary description
***For English see below***
Paseo por la zona del lago Vaattunkilampi, cruzando el río Raudanjoki por varios de sus meandros. Se trata de una zona de senderismo con varios recorridos bien señalizados, algunos incluso adaptados para personas con movilidad reducida.
Nosotros hicimos la ruta con niños a principios de mayo y aún había bastante nieve, por lo que tuvimos que adaptar la distancia y duración. En el waypoint donde vuelve la ruta tuvimos que dar la vuelta porque se perdía el sendero de maderas y la nieve estaba demasiado blanda. En invierno con raquetas o verano sin nieve se puede seguir adelante sin problemas.
Se cruzan varios puentes y todo el tiempo se transita por un bosque de coníferas impresionante. Hay varios refugios donde descansar o incluso hacer fuego para comer o pasar la noche.
La pista de acceso tiene unos 2 km. desde la carretera y no tiene pérdida. La señalización es clara (todo lo claro que puede ser el finés) y frecuente.

Short and easy walk on the Vaattunkilampi lake hiking area, going across Raudanjoki river and several of its ramifications. This is one of several hiking paths which start and finish at the same point. All of these trails are well marked and some are adapted for handicapped.
We did this trail at the beginning of May with children and there was still quite a lot of snow, so we had to adapt distance and duration. Where you see the track going back we had to turn around since the wooden path could not be seen and the snow was too soft. During winter with rackets or in the summer I'm sure there's no problem going further.
You'll go across several bridges and most of the time you'll be walking in an impressive forest of pine trees. There're several huts along the way where you can rest, make fire or even camp overnight.
The track which takes you from the main road to the starting point is about 2km long and is very easy to follow. Signalling is very clear (or as clear as Finnish language can be) and frequent.
