Environment

Lamminkangas is surrounded by the beautiful open countryside of Central Finland with its forests, lakes and hills. There is a wide range of greenery in this locality, as well as many tree and bird species. Hares, deer, elk, badgers, lynx and even bears live in the region.

Vast panoramas can be admired from the top of the Lamminkangas hills in the hours of daylight (in June and July this continues almost throughout the night). In the hours of darkness the stars and milky way can be seen very clearly.

The nature loving spirit of Lamminkangas is indicated by, e.g. by organic farming techniques and ecological building materials such as wood, linen, turf, sawdust and clay. Lamminkangas has a solar generated electricity contract and is a member of ECEAT Finland (European Centre for Ecological and Agricultural Tourism) .

Recycling is utilized in local construction work. Complete log cabins have been moved to new locations and converted to new uses. Antique interiors, furniture and household items have been favoured. This has been done to protect the environment and also for the comfort of everyone staying in Lamminkangas.

A walk around Lamminkangas is a superb way to get acquainted with the surroundings.
