Things to do in Lake Pielinen Region

  1. Suomen Kivikeskus

    Thirteen kilometres south of Juuka, Suomen Kivikeskus is an exhaustive look at Finnish geology and the use of stone. It’s almost compulsory to sneak a photo in the giant armchairs of the sculpture garden.

  2. Myllymuseo

    Myllymuseo is a highlight of Puu-Juuka as it’s a working old mill with a traditional smoke sauna nearby; there’s no signage so grab an English leaflet inside the museum when you pay.
