when along our trail we spotted
a wooden sign promising
a wonderful view - Jacopo and I decided to continue hiking in that direction: we were eager to find out what the sign meant. to do that we had to leave the side of
Kaitalampi lake behind us for a while and enter deeper in the forest: the path became narrower and steeper until we reached
the top of a hill.
all around Kaitalampi - part IV:
Nikon FM - Fuji Pro 400H
after climbing on top of
a huge rock - covered in soft green moss and virtually free of trees - we were finally able to look down onto
a large forest endlessly streching in front of us. that wooden sign was right:
it was indeed a wonderful view - even more glorious in the light of
the setting sun! I could have stayed there contemplating that spectacular vista for hours but
we had to keep on moving: it was going to be dark soon and we still had to hike
a considerable length of the trail around the lake.
more about Kaitalampi next week! have a lovely weekend! ♥
Super picturesque!
