Located a short distance from the block is the Vanhankaupunginlahti bay area, which is part of Helsinki’s largest nature conservation area. With its biodiversity and abundant bird species, Vanhankaupunginlahti is a favourite destination for birdwatchers, but the area has something to offer all nature lovers. The popular islands of Lammassaari and Kuusiluoto, for example, are located nearby and can be reached by duckboards – an adventure in itself!
