Garden and shore

A path through the Natura area

Walk the path through the nature reserve and its old black alder grove — this lakeside grove hides an incredibly diverse world of life. At Mallasranta you can swim, feel the fresh breeze on your face, and watch the waves of Lake Mallasvesi and the life of its birds and animals.

Spend a perfect moment away from everyday life, enjoy the care of nature and let the atmosphere of ElämysTilkku carry you away. You can also experience a stunning glass installation in the garden and a sensory experience in the attic.

Illuminated green glass artworks in a dim room.
An old lantern among climbing plants and lush leaves in the garden.
A calm lake with the far shore on the horizon.
A green Tentsile tree tent suspended between trees in a lakeside forest.
