The oldest records of habitation in the village of Lepäinen date back to the early 1400s. A stunning sea view awaits at the end of the side route through the island village of Lepäinen. When the weather is good at sea, the Isokari lighthouse can be seen on the horizon. Friends of nature can also spot birds that are rare in other parts of the country, such as the white tailed eagle, the Caspian tern and the black guillemot. Going along from Lepäinen towards Pyhämaa, the route passes wind-weathered sea-buckthorn bushes and leafy oak and ash groves, black alder forests and European crab apple trees, which are endangered in Finland.
