Jokivarren luontopolku—the same riverside walk widely known locally as Jokipolku or Suonenjoen Jokipolku—is a point-to-point nature path along the Suonenjoki river in Suonenjoki, North Savo. For route descriptions, access points, and kayaking alongside the river, Visit Savo’s Jokipolku page is a good starting point....
Walk either direction along the river; the route is point-to-point between practical start points such as Kimpanlampi, Siioninsilta, or Iisvesi harbour.
