Snow-free season

In the snow-free season the nature in Suomussalmi opens in a special way. Interesting, wellmarked hiking and biking trails, a number of campfire pits along the paths beckon you to enjoy the diversity of nature. The Martinselkonen Nature Reserve is the perfect spot to immerse yourself in the depths of the North Kainuu wilderness. Nature of Suomussalmi preserve offers visitors the ultimate conditions for bear-watching. Suomussalmi also aptly serves as a ficherman’s paradise. The municipal centre has excellent fishing piers and in Hossa catching fish is practically guaranteed due to the stocking by local fish nurseries.
