NUUKSIO is a vast wilderness highland area just half an hour's drive from Helsinki. A 50 m2 sized national park is located in the heart of the area, with approximately 200 000 visitors per year. The versatile and in part untouched nature hosts many endangered animals and plants. This book explores Nuuksio's nature and its special characteristics, the most important habitats and most interesting species, but also about human colonization and activity in the area. The artfully crafted text and stunning photographs bring the reader on an unforgettable journey into one-of-a-kind Southern Finnish nature. Mauri Leivo is a photographer, writer, and biologist from Porvoo. He has travelled, photographed, guided, and done research in Nuuksio for 25 years. He has produced five other photographic works.
