Öjen’s nature trail, situated at the south side of Vaasa, is 4,5 km long. There are information signs along the trail that tell you about the area’s nature, medicinal plants and folk tales. There are also maps showing your location. The trail is easy to walk on because the terrain is fairly flat. However, please remember that the duckboards can be very slippery depending on the weather conditions. It takes about 2,5 to 3 hours to go around the trail.
Facilities: at the campfire site, there are benches, firewood, an axe and a dry toilet.
The nature trail is reached from the parking area along Myrgrundintie road (road number 6741). Walk along the smaller Öjenvägen road about 300 metres until you see a small bridge and information sign on your left side.
