Love Forest Salo

Love Forest Finland, bacecamp in Salo

Sanna Katajainen and Timo Sippo (Nuorcamino), a couple from Salo who have done long hikes and are planning new routes again, took the initiative to establish Love Fores Finland basecamp in Salo.

The representatives of  City of Salo tackled the task very quickly and with an encouraging attitude.
The opening event of Love Fores Finland Salo will be celebrated in May 2023.
Special thanks to City Gardener Matti Nikander!

The area is owned by Cityof Salo, and the ownership of the trees thus also belongs to the city. Love Forest basecamp is a recreation area for everyone. Planting a tree is a beautiful memory and the growth of the tree can be followed from generation to generation.
