Oittaa Recreation Area

The Recreational Area of Oittaa, offering multiple possibilities for outdoor activities, is located at the southern end of Lake Bodom. During the summer Oittaa is one of the most popular beaches in Espoo. From here you will find changing rooms, showers, and even a beach volley field.

From an equipment rental shop, you can rent all kinds of equipment such as rowing boats and kayaks all year round. During winter you can rent equipment from HiihtoCenter in Oittaa, e.g. skiing equipment for 30 euros.

The area's 4,4 kilometers long outdoor trail serves as a jogging trail during the summer and as a ski track during winter. For lighter exercise, there are 2,2 kilometers long nature trails. Orienteering is possible in Oittaa area and in its wilderness with fixed orienteering points.

Oittaa Nature Trail

The Oittaa Nature Trail is about 1.5 kilometers. The landscape is spruce-dominated but the coastal forest and black alder mire near Bodomjärvi provide variation to the terrain. This nice circle trail is suitable for the whole family. Along the trail, there are information boards that contain information about the surrounding nature. The starting point is next to the main building of the Oittaa Manor and the trail is marked with yellow signs. The trail is easy, however, there is a rocky slope towards the end, which is fitted with steps for easier access.
