Description

This short Kivenhakkaajan luontopolku loop is about 1.4 km on the map and sits in the same Lehmilampi–Pyssymäki outdoor area as the rest of Nivala’s stonecutter-themed nature-trail network. The name in the listing signals a link-and-ride character: it meets Nivalan XCM-rata and other Kivenhakkaajan luontopolku variants...
