Itinerary description

Haukankierros on mukava pieni kävely valtavan vaihtelevassa metsässä. Erilaista puustoa, pitkälti luonnontilaista, kalliota ja sammaleita. Komea pirunpelto, komeat näkymät kallionlaelta ja hieno Hunttijärvi ja niin sanottu kaatuva kallio.

Matka vei vähän pitempään sillä pysähdyimme tuon tuosta syömään mustikoita ja vattuja.

---

The hawk's round is a nice little walk through varied Finnish forest. Gorgeous views from on top of a ledge, cool reclining ledges and other formations in the nature. The path is well sign posted and there are small bridges to cross the little streams you run across.

---
Tip 1: If the weather is good, bring a swim suit. There is a tiny beach suitable for swimming near the end of the path.
Tip 2: The bbq -area was out of firewood. Maybe consider leaving the car there and have some with you.
Tip 3: The first 100m had a lot of stinging nettles. It's better to walk along the side of the filed than gat stung by nettles.
Tip 4: This is not a quiet hike in the middle of the day. Parts of the hike are close enough to the road to hear the road noise.

The nettles are easy to avoid … just walk along the side of the field, not along the path.

Shore stone field

A shore stone filed is an ancient shore that is now far away from the lake. In Finnish this is called a pirun pelto i.e the field of the devil.

There was no firewood, so bring your own. This could be a great starting point for the hike as well.
