Hiking, running & nature trails
Hiking trails
Ruokolahti hiking trails offer varied landscapes across ridges, hills and along several scenic lakes. The main Ruokolahti hiking trails consist of two loops that can be combined into a 40 km long circuit. Then there's the Ruokolahti - Rautjärvi -route, which is a part og the wider E10 -trail system.
Scenic trails
Hukkavuori [Wolf Hill] and Haukkavuori [Hawk Hill] are both located in the northern part of Ruokolahti. The exotic and fun trails at Hukkavuori are an experience for hikers and families with children.
Haukkavuori is the highest point in South Karelia and from there you have a really nice view of lake Sarajärvi, as well as a connection to the E10 -hiking trails.
Fitness & running trails
Ruokolahti is known for its endurance athletes and so there are plenty of trails suitable for hiking and running around the municipality.
Nature trails
Our nature trails are mostly easy to navigate. The lengths vary from half a kilometre to just over two kilometres.
