Scenic routes on the Finnish Coast and Archipelago

Island hopping to unique small islands with a local passenger ferry. 

Dunes as far as the eye can see, an ocean with foaming waves, and idyllic fishermen’s villages tempt you to stay for just a little bit longer in the unique atmosphere of the largest island in the Bay of Bothnia.   

The kidneyworts and migratory birds delight visitors to the inner islands from the start of April. There are often summery days in September, and in October, the autumn colours light up the scenery.  

Experience culture, history and local life on the same route. The route runs from the centre of Salo via Wiurila Manor to the most pleasant rest stop in Finland - Design Hill.

Experience nature on wings on Finland's finest wetland! Liminganlahti has five birdwatching towers, from which you can observe the area's diverse birds and other wildlife.  

Take a trip for the taste buds around the delicious Salo region and fall in love with the region’s cafés, restaurants, breweries, and bakeries.

This interesting tour takes you to Salo's award-winning and idyllic villages, a combination of old and new village culture, traditional landscapes and beautiful nature. Discover Salo's village culture on the Salo Idyllic Villages car tour.
