Welcome
You reach SUMMER from the center of Liperi along an idyllic birch-lined road. On your left stands Liperi's impressive red-brick church, and on your right opens the bay. The churchyard wall, built of natural stone and restored using traditional methods, is a sight worth seeing in itself.

Ride Sharing
In North Karelia, a dedicated app has been developed to make ride sharing safe and easy. You can either post a ride request or offer a ride, and the app automatically calculates the fuel costs to be shared. The service is free to use – find it here: https://reissukyyti.fi/
