Porkkala was classified as nationally valuable landscape in autumn 2021. The road to Porkkala peninsula is an old historical road. At the same time it is a charming road as it goes through forests, you will see houses with gardens. agricultural land, but all the time forests dominate the landscapes. Forests here are mainly mixed forests with pines, spruces, birches and aspens. Mosses, blueberries and lingonberries are typical plants in the undervegetation.

You might also notice that there are lot of lichens on the trees and on the stones. This makes the forest landscape very different from for example beech forests of Central Europe. By the way, there are no beech forests in Finland….
