Pukinvuori

 

Jämsän sydän logoLocated near Jämsä’s town center, Pukinvuori Hillfort offers diverse nature experiences. This ancient Iron Age hillfort is surrounded by a network of trails that wind through lush vegetation, mossy spruce forests, and sunny slopes. The area boasts a rich variety of plant life, including leafy woodland plants, rugged pine trees, and sunlit hillsides.

At the top of Pukinvuori, you’ll find a scenic terrace with a sheltered campfire spot and a recently renovated firepit. A viewing platform provides stunning vistas over Jämsä’s town center. Several trails lead to the laavu, so remember to bring your own firewood!

In winter, the illuminated ski trail welcomes skiers. If arriving by car, you can start your adventure from the Jaatilanrinne sports field or the parking area at Särkijärvi fitness center (Moiskalantie 19).
