DAY 1 Introduction to the Kings Road starts from Hanko, Finlands most southern city. The city offers sandy beaches, ornately decorated 19th century wooden houses and beachfront restaurants. In Tammisaari the old wooden buildings known as Barckens houses give an atmosphere of the by-gone 18th and 19th centuries. The beautiful Tammisaari archipelago and its national park can be reached by ship, or it can be studied at the Nature Centre in the central beach area. One of the most famous places on the Western Kings Road is the iron works village at Fiskars. The idyllic, perfectly preserved industrial village and museums explain metal refinement from past centuries to the present day. Nowadays the iron works village has become an arts and culture centre. Bed and Breakfast Lemettinen offers an overnight at Fiskars. Hanko - Tammisaari 35 km, Tammisaari - Fiskars 30km |
