Hupisaaret

Getting around: A cluster of small islands and parkland in central Oulu, walkable from the market square.
Hours: Open at all times.

Hupisaaret is a chain of small river islands turned park in the middle of Oulu, connected by footbridges over the Oulujoki rapids, with old wooden buildings, a small local museum and mill ruins scattered through it — the city's central green space.

An easy, free addition to any central Oulu walk, especially good in summer.
