Ruskeala Waterfalls

Ruskeala Waterfalls (another name is Akhinkoski Waterfall, Akhvenkoski or Tokhmayoki) is a small park in which, after walking along ecological trails and suspension bridges, you can see the low plain Akhinkoski waterfall and three smaller rapids. The waterfalls are known for their brownish shade of water, which is sometimes called the "color of cola", a place for rafting and kayaking, as well as filming the films "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" (1972 film) and "Dark World" (2010 film). The decorations from "Dark World" have remained as an attraction.
