Nuuksion retkeilyopas - Luonto, reitit ja kohteet

The book is written in Finnish. 

The book divides Nuuksio into eight geographical areas. It presents all marked hiking trails, nature trails and connecting trails with signposts and rest areas with cooking shelters. The book also guides you to dozens of unmarked trails around Nuuksio and forms interesting route complexes from them. Some of the routes lead to areas where only a few have been. In addition to day trips, the book offers routes for multi-day hikes.

The Nuuksio hiking guide encourages hiking in all seasons and at unusual times of the day. Even a familiar hiking spot feels even more fascinating when you dive into its embrace on a spring morning, a summer night, an autumn evening, or in the dead of winter.

Nuuksio, with its lakes and forests, is a nature paradise for the people of the Helsinki Metropolitan Area. The varied habitats provide a habitat for a huge range of species. The book's numerous information boxes tell fascinating stories about the inhabitants of Nuuksio and natural phenomena. The text is complemented by abundant illustrations and dozens of maps. The book's place index covers 200 sites and the nature index covers 280 species and phenomena.

The book's author, Tommi Sirviö (Geography, Biology, Cartography), has been hiking in Nuuksio for over two decades and continues to find new joys there.

The book was edited by Mikko Lamminpää (Environmental Management), former editor-in-chief of Retki magazine and exhibition producer at Haltia Nature Centre.
