experience the caves of Enkelinpesä 

Enkelinpesä is group of caves formed when a large veined gneiss erratic boulder (12m x 12m x5-8m) cracked, and it contains a ledge cave and a crevice cave that runs through two boulders. The stone surfaces show large garnet crystals, illustrative migmatite structures and quartzified parts/dikes. There are also indeterminate red marks which are presumed to depict a human at an elevation of 1.1m on the walls of the ledge cave. 

The forest walkway leads to nature

Enkelinpesä is part of the marked Metsänväkäkitaipale trail network, and there is a small hut, a campfire site. Metsänväkitaipale is a hiking trail that links to the Hiidenkierros trail, which leads to the Neitvuori landscape. The Angel's Nest is easily accessible by car and bicycle. The Kannuslahdentie parking sign is located about 50 metres before the Enkelinpesä sign and on both sides of the path leading to the site. The location can be found on the VisitJuva website.
