In these places, logging work was carried out earlier, but after the founding of a national park here, all lands were restored to almost pristine state. Pines and birches mainly grow in the national park. The fauna is more diverse, there are a lot of deer, bears, lynx and elk, and various birds, for example, owls, red loons, and representatives of the chicken family. The Koukunjoki River flows through the national park, there are small streams and lakes.
