Our first destination to explore is Lauhavuori National Park and the Marian Luontoateriat operating in its area. The company organizes experiential meals to order, e.g. in the restaurant and on the porch. In Nälkähis we also get information about the Geopark project. The goal of the project coordinated by Metsähallitus is to develop and build the area's operations to the international level of Geopark criteria.
From Lauhavuori we head to Ulvila's Leineperi, whose old iron mill milieu has been taken over by craft workshops, exhibition spaces and shops. Several events are organized in the area during the year.
Our last destination is Tykkö village hall in Jämijärvi. The log-built village hall, completed in 2011, is in active use and requires activity from the village actors who run its activities as well.
