Heart laughs in Heikkilä

The village of Heikkilä, formed on an isthmus between two lakes, once enchanted the rune singer Marina Takalo. Marina from White Sea Karelia, who travelled around Finland, finally had her wish for a home in Heikkilä: “When I row to the shore, my heart laughs that I have my own home, that I can go to my own house.”

Lakes Pikku-Kiitämä and Kirpistö sparkle in the Heikkilä village. The shores and landscapes of Heikkilä village are the fulfilment of the wishes of not only the villagers but also numerous leisure residents.
