Directions
The driving distance to Vuonteenkoski rapids from Kuhmo city centre is about 40 kilometres.
The route to Vuonteenkoski is via Halkoahontie street. At the end of the dirt road that branches off from the road, there is a turning point and signpost to Vuonteenkoski. The path is initially a wider forest road. The path to the rapids forks to the left after half a kilometre before it starts to climb uphill. This junction is easy to miss, so be careful to avoid extra walking.
After a couple of hundred metres, the trail ends at the lean-to at the bottom of the rapids. The track is easy to find, for example on the free hiking map application Retkikartta.fi .
