Forests can be enjoyed by everyone

Recreational use of forests

Spending time in nature is one of the services provided by natural capital. We take an open approach to projects related to recreational use of our forests in cooperation with local entrepreneurs, communities and people.

We maintain opportunities for recreation and outdoor activities

We promote recreational use of forests through diverse forest management, by maintaining the forest road network and by providing opportunities for hiking, mountain sports, berry picking, hunting and other diverse uses of forests, shores and water bodies. Active trails are maintained during forest management. We also make contracts for regional and national hiking, skiing and snowmobile trails.

Finsilva cooperates with hundreds of hunting clubs and is one of the largest lessors of hunting rights in Finland. We mainly lease our areas to local hunting clubs that have previously operated in the same areas.
