Travel by car is a leisurely affair 

The car journey to Sahanlahti is quick and easy. Sahanlahti is located along Route 62. Coming from Mikkeli, the Lietvesi scenic road charms drivers again and again. It’s worth taking the time to stop and admire the scenery. Drivers coming from Savonlinna will reach Puumala after various bends. This stretch of road is particularly popular with motorcyclists. Coming from Imatra, the newly widened asphalt road is still so pitch-black that on a warm summer’s day, the air shimmers. 

Parking at Sahanlahti is free of charge. If you are planning to park your car and go off to do activities such as cycling or boating, we recommend the Sahankylä cottage village parking area. This parking area also has electrical outlets for heating your car in winter. There is a private parking area on the beach for those who have reserved a boat place. 

There is also an electric car charging station at Sahanlahti, available free of charge for our guests. The plug is type 2 and 11 kW. 

Buses have their own designated, exclusive parking area. 

Train station nearby, by bus to the destination
