Did you know that 30% of Finland’s area used to be bog land? Bogs are Finland’s most important carbon sinks. Here at Hawkhill, we are restoring our bog lands as a carbon sinks to do our part in curbing climate change. Come and learn, see and taste, what it is all about on guided tour. If you want, you can give us a hand!

Your guide will take you through Hawkhill to the beautiful Haukansuo bog area, and you will learn about plants, berries and the bog ecosystem. You will also learn about the mythology and history of boggy lands, and see the restoring process first hand. After returning to Hawkhill, you will learn about alien species and see the biodiversity work that is done here. If you want, during the tour you can join us in the practical work of getting rid of alien species, hands on.

Leave it better than you found it!
