Koroistenniemi Trail is a very short marked loop of about a tenth of a kilometre on the Koroistenniemi peninsula in Turku, Southwest Finland, where the Aura River meets the Vähäjoki. The peninsula sits inside Finland’s national urban park network; for the cathedral-period story, earthworks, and how the place is framed as part of Turku’s wider riverside park, the National Urban Parks programme’s Koroistenniemi article is the clearest official overview(1). The City of Turku’s completed 2021 resident-budget project added attractive information boards and improved small paths so people can explore the nature and cultural heritage of Koroinen more widely on their own, together with underwater restoration of Vähäjoki for fish spawning(2). Turku’s main Luontopolut hub still lists Pomponrahka, Kyyrlä-Toijainen, Katariinanlaakso, and Ruissalo as its dedicated long nature trails, so think of Koroistenniemi as a historic river-meadow visit you can combine with other waterside routes rather than a separate all-day forest hike. On the ground you see earthworks, dry moat lines, church and outbuilding foundations, and a large cemetery tied to Finland’s thirteenth-century bishopric; visitors are steered along signed approaches so the archaeological soils are not cut up by shortcutting across banks(3). A small outdoor exercise point, Koroisten ulkokuntoilulaitteet, sits near the Koroinen shore, useful if you are threading together a longer Aurajoki outing. The same riverbank knot also meets longer Turku trail geometry: Helenan polku and Pietarin polku walking networks, the Paavonpolut long-distance hiking corridor, and Aurajoen melontareitti for kayaking all pass this neighbourhood, making it easy to lengthen a day along the Aura without doubling back through the city centre. Turku is the home municipality, and Southwest Finland is the wider region.

Maarian Stone Age Trail is about 5.5 km as a loop on the east side of Maarian allas, a reservoir northeast of Turku in Southwest Finland. The route threads mixed spruce and pine forest, rocky outcrops, small streams, and patches of clay soil left from ice age deposits. Metsähallitus lists the trail on Luontoon.fi with the same name and location context(1). The City of Turku publishes the Paavon trails network and other marked city routes on its outdoor pages(2). The Aurajokisäätiö guide to Maarian altaan kohteet introduces the basin landscape—windmill history, springs, and the 1980s dam—and explains how the Stone Age trail shares forests with the blue-marked Paavon trails(3). Retkipaikka’s walk-through and Mari Hietala’s spring hike report both note faint markings in places and the value of waterproof footwear after wet weather(4)(5). About 5.4 km into the loop you pass near Maarian uimaranta on Karhunojantie—a swimming beach and natural break point before you close the ring. The same regional forests host Paavon trails (Paavonpolut), a long-distance marked walking network around Turku; sections run through this area so you can combine or compare outings on the same visit. Turku lies a short drive or bus ride to the southwest; Southwest Finland’s gentle coastal countryside surrounds the basin. Stone Age settlement sites and ancient springs near the trail give the route its name and a strong sense of place. When several paint systems overlap in the same woods, a downloaded track or offline map makes it easier to stay on the route you intend.

Rauvolanlahti Bay trails is a point-to-point hiking route of about 3.9 km on the Turku side of the Rauvolanlahti wetland, between the Ispoinen recreation area and Rauvolanlahden lintutorni at the reed-fringed bay. Metsähallitus publishes the same route nationally as Rauvolanlahden polut on Luontoon.fi(1). The City of Turku describes Rauvolanlahden lintutorni as standing in the Rauvolanlahti Nature Reserve and notes that this reserve, together with Katariinanlaakso and Vaarniemi, forms a popular birdwatching area linked by marked walking trails(2). The Finnish Environment Institute records Rauvolanlahti as a Natura 2000 site protecting coastal meadows, reeds, and shallow bays important for breeding and resting waterbirds(4). Turku lies on the southwest coast; the Rauvolanlahti shore sits on the municipal border with Kaarina. From the Ispoinen end, the line passes Ispoisten ulkokuntoilulaitteet within a few hundred metres of the start, then runs through the Katariina sports block: Katariinan lentopallokenttä, Katariinan koripallokenttä, and Katariinankenttä sit side by side along Katariinantie. About 3.5 km from the start you reach Rauvolanlahden lintutorni, a birdwatching tower with views over the wetland and reedbeds—natural stopping points for binoculars and quieter birdwatching(2)(3). The same landscape belongs to the wider St. Catherine's Trails hiking route and the Vaarniemen-Rauvolahden luontopolku link toward Vaarniemen näkötorni; Retkipaikka's walk-through of Pyhän Katariinan polut praises the tower viewpoints, oak woodland, boardwalks toward Katariinanlaakso, and blue paint marks on Vaarniemi rock sections when you extend onto those paths(3). On our map this route shares endpoints with Paavonpolut, overlaps Kuntorata Ispoinen-Harittu-Lauste near the start, and meets Ispoisten kuntorata and Ispoisten latu beside the same outdoor-gym corner—useful if you want to combine a short hike with a run or ski loop in season.

Ruissalo Nature Trails is a long day hike on Ruissalo Island in Turku, in the archipelago landscape of Southwest Finland. The route is about 14.6 km as mapped here. The City of Turku describes the island’s nature trail network as roughly 20 km in total, with many named loops and links you can combine; this line is one continuous path through that green-marked network(1)(2). For printable maps, Citynomadi mobile routes, barbecue sites, bird towers, and the outdoor gym, start with the City of Turku’s Ruissalo hiking pages(1). The trail is not a closed loop; it threads through oak forests, coastal woods, and bays, with birdwatching stops and a fishing pier along the way. About half a kilometre from the start you reach Krottilanlahden lintutorni, a bird tower with views over the bay and good general birding. Much further along, around 11 km, Tammenterhon esteetön lintulava offers an accessible birdwatching platform near the Ruissalo shipyard and promenade for visitors who need a level viewing spot(1). Near 12 km you pass Kansanpuiston kalastuslaituri, a fishing pier at Folk Park, and soon after Marjaniemen lintutorni, another bird tower toward the head of the island. Near the end of the mapped line, Ruissalon ulkokuntoilulaitteet adds outdoor exercise equipment beside the Ruissalo shipyard area for a short strength session on the way home. Ruissalo’s oakwoods and mixed shoreline habitats are nationally important: Ruissalo nature pages on the municipal site describe centuries-old oak stands, rare species, and the island’s mix of meadows, conifer forest, and sea bays(3). The same material explains how grazing history shaped today’s trees—worth reading if you want historical context before you walk(3). Independent write-ups echo what locals know: the island suits anything from a short garden loop to longer forest walks, and many routes link to Krottilanlahden lintutorni and other viewpoints(4). Retkeilyä Satakunnassa ja muualla Suomessa recounts linking from the garden area toward Krottilanlahden lintutorni and back(4). Kotimaatutuksi highlights marked trails, villas, and combining bus line 8 or your own car with walking on the island(5).

Paattinen Nature Trail is a short loop of about 1.7 km in Paattinen, north of Turku, in Southwest Finland. Metsähallitus lists the route on Luontoon.fi with map and service details for planning(1). For a walk-through of the laavu, river bridges, markings, and how the loop feels in different seasons, Mikko Sorsa’s Retkipaikka article is worth reading(2). Tarja Prisk’s Out in the Nature report from Paattinen describes the same riverside start, the lean-to on the rock, and how quiet the trail can be on a weekday(3). The path leaves the Vähäjoki valley, crosses a footbridge, and climbs through spruce and pine forest to a lean-to and fireplace on a rocky hill; information boards along the way cover local ecology. The trail is marked with yellow paint spots on tree trunks and wooden arrow signs, and sources describe following the loop counterclockwise so the markings read naturally(2). A short wooden walkway and boardwalk sections appear in wet places; roots, narrow passages, and short climbs make the terrain uneven, so the route is not suitable for wheelchairs or strollers(2)(3). In icy or very wet weather, riverside sections can be slippery; dry late spring can be the easiest time underfoot(2)(3). The lean-to has a fire ring; bring your own firewood if you plan to cook or heat the space, as supply varies(2). The same trailhead area links to Paattisten jokipolku, a separate marked riverside route that extends the outing along Paattistenjoki(2). A longer trail in the village network, Airikin polku, is another option nearby if you want more kilometres after this loop. Turku lies in Southwest Finland; Paattinen is easy to reach by bus or bike from the city centre(2)(3).

Paattinen sits in northern Turku, and Paattisten jokipolku is a short riverbank walk along Paattistenjoki. The trail is about 1.9 km as mapped. For the local trail description and how Jokipolku meets Paattisten luontopolku, start with Paattisten Kyläyhdistys ry’s Jokipolku page(1). The route follows the river in open and wooded scenery, with several footbridges so you can join or leave from more than one point along the bank. The same local pages place the start near the old rectory in Auvaismäki and list about 2.5 km along the river in their materials—somewhat longer than our mapped line, which reflects the GPX segment used on the map(1). Retkipaikka’s account stresses that markings are sparse in places, so it helps to know you are following the river corridor and field edges rather than dense waymarking(2). The same article notes stretches beside horse pastures and a narrow path between fences where the tread can be uneven with roots and hoofprints, and unpleasantly sticky when wet(2). A 2015 blog post on Mtbfin describes similar river scenery, bridges, and parking options near Paattinen’s information point with a few spaces mid-route and toward the south end(3). In summer you may meet horses along fenced sections; give them space. On our map the route meets Paattisten luontopolku along the river; the longer Airikinpolku network lies a short distance away if you want to extend the day. Turku is the home city, and Varsinais-Suomi (Southwest Finland) is the wider region.
