Nature trails & Nature reserve

Nature trails get you movingBird watching tower

Virvik (2.4 km), Sikosaari (1.5 km), Hasselholmen (1.5 km), Ekudden (2 km), and the latest addition Gammelbacka (2 km), make up Porvoo's network of nature trails. For example, the Sikosaari nature trail is well-marked and easy terrain. Although there are wooden tracks over the watery spots, rubber boots are recommended during wet weather.

The Sikosaari nature trail is surrounded by forest and seashore. Old-growth pine moorland and bright rocky forests dominate the beginning and end of the trail. In between, the trail winds through cane grass and seaside groves. Remember to bring your binoculars because the bird towers and crags are great spots to do some bird watching.
