The pine tree was transported away from the national park. Metsähallitus is amazed how anyone can need one tree trunk and why it had to be taken from a national park.
Last weekend vandalism was committed in the Oulanga National Park in Kuusamo. In the yard of Jussinkämpa, located in the southern part of the park, a large pine tree has been felled without permission. The trunk of the tall pine has been transported away from the site and the crown has been left at the sawing site.
Autiotupa Jussinkämppa is along the Oulanga wilderness trail and the Karhunkierros hiking trail.
Trees growing in the national park may not be felled, and branches of trees or bushes may not be cut.
The exception is that ground wood and low-value wood and twigs can be used to make fire in the aapa part, which was added to Oulanga National Park in 1981, and in the Kitkanniemi area in connection with hunting, Metsähallitus reminds.
