Other streams and lakes are also situated within the parks boundaries.Put Repovesi National Park into our Kouvola vacation builder tool to see other points of interest to visit during your vacation in Kouvola.

Absolutely amazing views! Lot's of different routes to walk so you don't have to be a professional hiker. You can camp and swim there and of course use the grills to make food. Must thing to see in Kouvola! I loved the visit! :D
-
Varying terrain, lots of ups and downs. Breathtaking views in many spots. There are several trails available with ample options. If you change your mind mid-trail, it's easy to re-plan. Good drinking water is available in a few locations, which is not always the case.

Great place for challenging walks. Many ups and downs make routes interesting though sometimes demanding. You'll see spectacular rocks and clearest lakes. Definitely worthy to visit or stay for longer.
