Pitches overlooking Lake Puula and a beach five minutes’ drive away? Like the sound of that? Say no more, just get packing right now and head for Camping Kiviniemi, in southern Finland’s spectacular lake district. This peaceful site is a fantastic stopover for anyone wanting to get active in the bracing Finnish air – or, for that matter, anyone who wants nothing more than to put their feet up on the lakeside beach and soak up the views. Fishing, hiking, golf, swimming and boating are all available within about five minutes’ drive, and if that’s all too much hassle for you, there’s a traditional sauna right on the beach for even more R&R. The site guarantees a comfortable and cosy stay on spacious pitches shaded by tall trees. Spotlessly clean facilities and well-equipped kitchens, the informal café and shared barbecue hut make camping life as simple as possible, while the friendly team in reception are on hand to answer any queries and get your sightseeing schedule organised. If you need to stock up on foodie bits and bobs, Kangasniemi village (five minutes’ drive) has a grocery store and supermarkets. Not into alfresco cooking? Gather up the kids and eat out in the village’s pizzerias and beach bars.

Local attractions

The pretty town of Kangasniemi (five minutes’ drive) occupies a spur of land stretching between Pappilansalmi and Ruovedenselkä lakes. Predictably, much of what you can do here rotates around the water, with fishing and canoeing particularly popular activities. The collections of the Kangasniemi Local History Museum are housed in a granary from 1913. The main attraction in Jyväskylä (50 minutes) is the Alvar Aalto Museum, with a permanent exhibition on the life and works of the Finnish architect and designer. Also in town is the Natural History Museum of Central Finland, with displays on the regional ecosystem. On Jyväsjärvi lake, Gr8wake has an inflatable water park, as well as paddleboard rentals and wakeboarding. The wooden Kuhankoski Suspension Bridge (50 minutes) is one of three bridges crossing Laukkavirta lake. This is a great area to explore on foot or by bike, with forested paths and swimming beaches.
