Arrival instructions
Take the turning toward Barösund from the Helsinki-Hanko road (number 51). The Barösund cable-ferry will take you to Orslandet island. Follow the “Bjurs” signs emblazoned with the Vantaa coat-of-arms. Before you reach the Bjurs area, follow the road turns to the left toward Gölisnäs.
Gölisnäs is situated on the southern edge of Orslandet island in Inkoo. It is both a destination for all kinds of boaters and for visitors arriving by other means. The area’s labyrinthine archipelago provides many boat landing opportunities and can be also enjoyed by those who like to paddle. Visitors arriving from the mainland can enjoy the small roads and the cable-ferry on the way to Gölisnäs. Gölisnäs has a few small tracks that encircle the hilly forest, the lagoon-like bay to the north of the island, and Göliglo’s shore cliffs, which are an excellent place for some fishing. Visitors are encouraged to plan an overnight stay at one of the island’s rental cottages and enjoy an authentic Finnish sauna.
