Autumn colours and mice with silicone diet – Herajärvi trail

October 24, 2021October 25, 2021 / Sirri Rimppi / 2 Comments

About 60 km of walking in Eastern Finland? Absolutely! Herajärvi trail in Koli National Park was brilliantly autumnal. Golden colours and cheeky animals.

Sun is shining and trees are turning, I’m starting to believe in urban summer.

Starting to look like spring, finally, and I’ll need to get used to real rock again. The ”easy” stuff kept me busy, no confidence to climb the highballs quite yet…

“My heart has joined the Thousand, for my friend stopped running today” - Hazel, Richard Adams, Watership Down

I was supposed to go to Russia this month. Now it’s not an option. My cousin had to come back from st Petersburg as things were getting too difficult and dangerous for foreigners, and the ordinary people in Russia are facing major changes in their lives. It is not the same as being attacked and having to run for your life but the war affects people on both sides. And it is all happening so very near just now, just across one invisible border. I’ve written more about this on my blog - link in the bio.
