Räsävaara Observation tower, North Karelia, Finland

5.0 (7 reviews) Spent < 1 hour Ranking #9 in Koli National Park Observation Decks & Towers

Great views

Couldn't miss this one despite the 2 miles gravel road and short steep hike to the tower itself. Would have to say it's not obvious where to go, but the views are exceptional and without the Koli crowds

    One of my favourite views
    From Räsävaara observation tower you can experience one of my favourite views in Koli, even though it's not inside the borders of the National Park. You can park your car a few hundered meters from the tower and near the parking place is a small, open shelter and a campfire place. Räsävaara was one of the places that Eero Järnefelt spent some time painting his well-known paintings.

    Fabulous views
    A short walk up from the road, quite steep but worth it for the wonderful views from the top of the viewing tower. Nice way to spend a couple of hours. Also a camping grill place at the bottom along with lean to where you could camp overnight
