Activities in Uddskatan Nature Reserve  

What can you do at Uddskatan?

Hike on the marked trail and explore the nature path

Visitors to the Uddskatan area must stay on the marked trail at all times. The Tulliniemi nature path is 6.7 km long and marked by posts with white caps. The path is difficult to hike in some places and is therefore not accessible.
