Description

The Vilkkiläntura bird watching tower is located in a shallow and sheltered sea bay on the coast of the Gulf of Finland, connected to the sea through two narrow sounds. Vilkkiläntura is characterized by an extensive reed zone and narrow alluvial meadows fringed with a zone of Black Alder. The bay is an exceptionally important staging area for waterfowl, as for Cygne chanteur, Cygne de Bewick and Harle piette, and waders. It’s a great place for watching waterfowl and waders resting on their migration routes. The best season to watch birds here is from April to May. The tower has one open platform and a parking area.
