Adopt hut etiquette – you may not use a camping stove in cabins
How should one behave in day-use huts and open wilderness huts to ensure safety and comfort for all? Hut etiquette provides instructions for all self-guided hikers on how to use huts and behave in huts. Additionally, most huts have a hut folder containing useful practical information and instructions related to that specific hut.
Metsähallitus will survey primary and old-growth forests during 2024–2026
The purpose of the inventory is to identify and protect primary and old-growth forests in accordance with the EU Commission definition and national criteria. Once state-owned forests have been inventoried, Parliament will decide on the areas to be protected on the basis of a government proposal.
