The musical forest is a unique nature trail that also offers a cultural experience. Along the trail you can play large instruments built in a forest close to Suomussalmi.

The Musical Forest combines in a unique way nature and culture. You can link your outdoor activity with playing music as you walk along the nature trail in the ridge landscape. The Musical Forest consists of a number of different outdoor instruments that can not only be played but are pieces of art as well. The instruments along the nature trail are designed as a whole. At the beginning of the route there are flamboyantly striking instruments, then you will hear joyfully ringing and buzzing sounds. The precious sounds of a totem and a rain pipe round off the collection. Behind the rain pipe instrument the beautiful landscape of Lake Hietajärvi opens up. The landscape of Kaunisniemi is a rolling artic pine forest with numerous trails criss-crossing the musical instruments.

The Musical Forest nature trail is also accessible with wheelchair.
