Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Kaitalampi in Espoo is the perfect forest area and lake to escape the hustle and bustle of the capital area in Finland. Only about 35 minutes from Helsinki, Kaitalampi lake in Luukki recreation area provides nice trails and several cooking shelters for spending a day outdoors.

Are you interested of nature and get relaxed? Pack your lunch with you and take your voita to one of the most beautiful lakeside near by Helsinki. It is 23 km from Helsinki. No urban noise, silence wraps around you only!😊

We’ll sign-posted and a convenient location from the capital if you want to see some lakes, walk along forest tracks and have a bit of a barbecue. Some small hills but proper forest track all the way. Very family friendly.

This lake is deep and has clear water, so good swimming skills required. There is opportunity to walk the trails and grill. Very beautiful and quiet place. Travel here with car.

Cool water, beautiful surroundings and fire place, good place for half day trip! You need car to get there and take your own food with you.

Kaitalampi Lake is one of my go-to places, when I want some peace and quiet. A walk around the lake always relaxes me. The scenery is so beautiful and it is peaceful there (most of the time).

Great place with beautiful scenery. Public BBQ spots, great tracks for hiking and jogging. Only 30 minutes from Helsinki down town, but feels like you were in a middle of complete, unspoilt wilderness.

We are staying in Espoo in August and are trying to find places to visit. We prefer to see villages and local life rather than cities and museums.
Would appreciate any information on interesting villages, fishing harbours or any country living.

Hi kedgeKent
Nice to hear that you are going to visit my home town, welcome! August is a good month to have a nice time here.
Kintus P listed actually nearly all places near by which are the most popular and worth of visit. It would help us to recommend places if we know what kind of transportation choices you have in your use while visiting and how many days you have chance to be here. Espoo is not the best place for public bus crossconnections inside Espoo and the trains are moving only south area with one main lane. But it is very useful between Helsinki-Espoo-Kirkkonummi area. (east-west direction, change trains at Pasila station if you want reach Vantaa area) If you have a car on your use things are much more better to reach. Also the information of which part of Espoo you are going to stay could be useful in order to give tip where to go locally.
One site which you could be interested of is nationalparks dot fi and choose destinaton leaflet. (national board of forestry pages).
Probably you know this already but in case not, check out visitespoo dot fi/en this is the official site of Espoo city, you will find many useful tips from there.
You did not tell are you coming at the beginning or the end of august. This has a small meaning which you may value. Espoo archipelago waterbuses are on line every day (except mondays) just until 14.8. after that they drive on weekends to outdoor islands.
Summer holiday season for families practically ends at 16.8. because schools are starting. This has an effect to traffic and people amount using services near by when they are "warming up" home again after returning from their summer cottages =D.
For fishing look at the possibilities of Porkkala area.
