Central Ostrobothnia

The terrain of Central Ostrobothnia ranges from low, open coastal plains in the west to forests and peatlands in the eastern interior, creating broad horizons and a spacious, level character. On the Gulf of Bothnia, Kokkola combines an active port with Neristan, a preserved district of historic wooden houses. The Perho River runs across the region towards the coast. Further inland, Kaustinen is internationally known for its fiddle-playing traditions, added to UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2021.
