The unique Kvarken Archipelago is Finland's only Natural World Heritage Site on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Together with Sweden's High Coast, the Kvarken Archipelago is the best place in the world to experience and understand the land uplift phenomenon caused by the last Ice Age. This area is characterized by its constantly shifting landscapes due to post-glacial rebound, where the land is rising at a rapid rate. Visitors can explore the archipelago's diverse ecosystem, including rocky islands, sandy beaches, and lush forests, making it a popular destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.
