The magnificent nature of Repovesi
The nature of Repovesi National Park is typical of the Finnish forest landscape at its best. The forests of the national park are mixed forests of pine, spruce and birch, with maples, linden and rowan. The glaciation has shaped the landscape, which is rocky and varied in altitude, and the highest peaks in the area, Mount Blackhammer and Mount Olhava, offer breathtaking views over the Repovesi River.
Lakes criss-cross the landscape throughout the Repovesi. Repovesi itself is a large lake on the western side of the national park. The long and narrow Kapiavesi connects Repovesi with Lake Tihvetjärvi, south of the national park. On the western side, the Repovesi River connects via Hillosensalmi to Lake Vuohijärvi, the largest lake in the area.
