Mäntyharju–Repovesi Canoeing & Kayaking Route

Mäntyharju-Repovesi paddling route is not difficult and is suitable for those who have no experience, but the larger stretches of water may be hard work during strong winds. The crossing of Voikoski carrying section is approximately 700 meters, so make sure you are prepared for that distance. There’s one canoecarriage, a solid ground and it’s made easier to land on the water. You may find also geocache nearby.
