Trekking in Nuuksio National Park.
The forest and lake are beautiful!
It was a truly beautiful view.
It was so wonderful I wanted to take the whole forest home with me.
The well-maintained hiking trail was very easy to walk on,
There were more steep ups and downs than I expected.
For my first trek in a while, it was fairly challenging.
I walked about 15 kilometers.

There were about five sets of stairs like this here.
