Helvetinjärvi National Park

The special feature of Helvetinjärvi National Park is two ancient gorge valleys. Helvetinkolu, located in the south-eastern part of Lake Helvetinjärvi, is the best-known gorge in the area. The rocky nature of Helvetinjärvi is rich and diverse, with the best parts found in the surroundings of the gorge lakes. The Helvetinkolu can be reached via the “Helvetistä itään” (“East of Hell”) nature trail, and at the starting point of the trail, the Helvetin Portti Restaurant serves delicious food and coffee before or after the trip. Come and find out what caused the forces of nature to move the earth’s crust millions of years ago!
