Hiking Track

A hiking track passes right by the museum. The track was made in 1981. The track runs from Torsviken to Pörkenäs and Fäboda, then back again to Torsviken. There is also a nature hike next to the 33 kilometer long hinking track. There are maps placed at the entrances and at path crossings. A map can also be bought from the tourism office in Pietarsaari. Red ribbons mark out where the track runs. You don’t have to walk the whole route; you can easily divide it to shorter walks to get acquainted with the nature in the area. The entrance to the track is just 100 m from the mail building of Nanoq.

Dress according to the weather! Good shoes or boots is recommended. Save the nature by staying on the trail. There are houses along the trail that you are welcome to use if you want to take a break. There are wood and fireplaces. You are free to use these unless there are warnings for forest fires. Be careful with the fire! There is more information about the trail on the city of Pietarsaaris webpages www.pietarsaari.fi
