Tulijärvi spur trail
Route
Description
Tulijärvi spur trail is about 1.3 km one way in Suomussalmi in Kainuu, linking Itärajan retkeilyreitti (the Eastern Border Hiking Route) with Tulijärvi autiotupa and its lakeshore campfire spot beside Lake Tulijärvi. This is the short Kainuu forest path to that open wilderness hut — not the longer Tulijärven polku day...
