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.

- Tomi WickmanHelsinki, Finland2,950 contributionsGood paths to walk. Nice hanging bridge. Ancient historical sacred places. Beautifull quite originall nature.

- Heikki sHelsinki, Finland113 contributionsVerla was the first stop of our five day round trip of Southeastern Finland. A friend recommended the place, and for good reason.
Overall an impressive and beautiful place, well taken care of. We stayed in a lovely, tidy cottage built in the late 19th century. Enjoyed the sauna and clear water of the lake.
I'd give 5/5 if not for some trouble with the sauna door code... And overpriced drinks in the restaurant. But all in all, a positive experience!Written 22 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Perhaps that's the reason the park was not crowded at all, and most of the rides had no line at all.
The park is mostly for young children. The rides are nice and not too scary. There aren't too many rides for teenagers or adults.
We bought wristbands for all the family, but actually it was enough to get wristbands for the kids only.Written 11 August 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Really friendly and unique placeWritten 23 August 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It is 2.1 kilometers long and starts just behind the shopping center Veturi, 200 meters from K-Rauta Ironmonger's (home improvement shop).
You don't need wellingtons (rubber boots), because there are boardwalks on the wettest passages. There is a low observation tower on the trail. If you are hiking with kids, you should be aware, because there is a cliff without a fence next to the observation tower.
There aren't any services in Niivermäki (not even dry toilets or waste baskets). So you have to use the services of the shopping center Veturi.
Niivermäki Nature Conservation Area is worth of a separate trip but it is also a nice resting place for drivers driving along the highway 6.Written 14 August 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

However, they offer activities in summer, too. Mielakka BikePark is extremely good. They have 20 downhill mountain biking routes, two lifts and biking paths. The cafeteria-restaurant is quite nice and cozy. You can also buy sausages there and grill sausages in their campfire. Besides, they always have something new in Mielakka Ski Center. Now they have painted the longest rag rug painting in Finland. It is about 350 meters long.Written 3 September 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Roosa MakkonenSavonlinna, Finland18 contributionsVenturi is a huge shopping centre with everything you could possibly need. I was really surprised that a place like this exists in Kouvola.

- Outi MHelsinki, Finland2 contributionsVery interesting museum! Also for kids. Lots of things to see if you like history and machines.

- JariJKKouvola, Finland7,076 contributionsPyhän Ristin Kirkko (Holy Cross Church) was built in 1913-1915. First it was a Russian military church, then a Lutheran church and nowadays an orthodox church. The building is extremely beautiful. It is situated within the precincts of an old barracks, only one kilometer from the downtown (Manski pedestrian street). However, I recommend that you walk still further from the church to see all beautiful houses in the old barracks area (around parks Prikaatinpuisto and Rykmentinpuisto).Written 20 October 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Outi IHollola, Finland10 contributionsLovely path through the forest. Easy to follow. Especially Paaskoski rapids are a scenic spot. If you want to make fire elsewhere than in Paaskosken Maja bring your own wood. Also take the litter with you as you leave.Written 7 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
