Welcome for a walk tour from Hirvensalo island to mainland Turku! We will take a path from Hirvensalo St. Henry’s Ecumenical Art Chapel (Taidekappeli, Seiskarinkatu Protected content Henrikinkirkko (Peltolantie 2). Walking distance is 7,5 km.
The walk tour begins at noon 1 August with a short visit in the Art chapel. We then start the walk through Hirvensalo meadows and across Hirvensalo bridge to the mainland. We will follow a path recently designed as a new pilgrimage path between Turku Cathedral and Art Chapel, but only do half of its length this time. The full length of the path would be 13 km, and you can see the details of this “Henrikin polku” at
