Pirulanvuori Observation Tower

The Pirulanvuori observation tower in Suodenniemi offers breathtaking views of a landscape immortalized on the reverse side of the Finnish one-euro coin. From the tower, you can admire a stunning lake view and an ancient water route that once connected the heartlands of Sastamala to the Gulf of Bothnia, a route still in use for log floating in the early 1900s.

The tower was built by the Suodenniemi Lions Club in 2012 to celebrate the association’s 30th anniversary. The viewpoint is also tied to fascinating local folklore. Pirulanvuori is a perfect destination for nature lovers and story enthusiasts, easily accessible and absolutely worth bringing your camera.
