Kirkkojärvi Nature Trail is an easy urban-edge walk of about 5.8 km around Kirkkojärvi lake on the fringe of central Hamina in Kymenlaakso. The trail threads reed-fringed wetland and short forested shore, then links streets and light-traffic paths past sports fields and the summer park before returning toward the start...
Walkers typically follow the posted nature-trail sequence; either direction works, but shore sections are easier to follow than the street links—carry the city or Luontoon map.
Route direction
Nature-trail boards and occasional arrows; paint marking is limited on urban stretches.
