Services

For decades, Kuusijärvi has been a well-liked around-the-year destination and the services in the area have over the last few years been developed further to improve versatility. Vantaa’s largest beach and the variety of different routes for hikers, joggers, cyclists and skiers bring people to Kuusijärvi. The bridge that crosses the old Porvoontie road connects the Kuusijärvi recreation area and Sipoonkorpi National Park, which means that visitors can make longer expeditions. The impressive bridge travels high up in treetops, and crossing it is an experience in itself.
In the winter, Kuusijärvi also offers opportunities to enjoy the gentle heat of a genuine smoke sauna and ice swimming.
