In our blog, we have presented nearby hiking destinations from the Rautavaara<\/a> and Tiilikkaj\u00e4rvi<\/a> National Parks to the Tahko area<\/a>, but you can also hike directly from the Old School to the magnificent Reitti\u00f6nharju. Unique hiking terrain opens up from the school yard. In mid-September we went on a mushroom foray on the Riding Tree Ridge and came back with a couple of buckets of mushrooms and chanterelles. \"\" Tahko’s surroundings are very largely sandy grassland, pine forest and moss and lichen-covered terrain. The ice age has shaped a lot of soups there, which makes the ridge plentiful in height differences. From the school yard, start right first along Varpaisj\u00e4rventie over Eitikantie, where the Reitti\u00f6nharju trail starts, continuing in the same direction as Varpaisj\u00e4rventie. The trail runs up the top of the ridge and passes three small lakes. The scenery is stunning. In addition to mushrooms, the area is rich in lingonberries and blueberries. \"\" The path eventually comes to a sandy mound and turns right to continue on an overgrown sandy road back towards you. This loop forms approx. 6 km route.
