Punnuksen kunta lies on the Karelian Isthmus between the Gulf of Finland and Lake Ladoga, where forests, lakes and gently rolling terrain define this inland part of Leningrad Oblast. It belongs to a borderland whose place names recall the isthmus’s Finnish past: this area was part of Finland before the Second World War and became part of the Soviet Union after it. Rather than an urban centre, Punnuksen kunta is a point of reference in the sparsely settled countryside of Vyborg District.
