Finland has unique right concerned for everybody. Everybody in Finland has right to get opportunity to use nature free of charge and without individual permission, regardless whoever owns the area. You are allowed to walk, ski, horse riding or cycling freely in the nature. Make sure you do not damage the meadows and plants and you are not allowed to cut any plants or bushes.
