The forest and mire nature of Eastern Kainuu and Viena Karelia includes some of the last remaining tracts of natural coniferous forest in Western Europe. The natural environment on both sides of the border between Finland and Russian Karelia is fundamentally similar; dusky coniferous forests, miry spruce, aapamires, the open expanses of large lakes, wilderness ponds and rivers.
This guide provides an overview of the nature of the area and its distinguishing features as well as shedding light onto the relationship between the inhabitants and forests of the border lands. The most important protection areas are also presented. Near Fine. Item #5896
