Päijänne Natural Heritage Foundation PLUPS promotes nature conservation and hiking in the vicinity of the Lake Päijänne. The foundation has acquired or received 23 properties as donations; shoreline forests, island and marshlands with a total area of 531 hectares. There are a total of more than 14 kilometers of undeveloped shoreline at our sites.

The main task of the foundation, founded in 2008, is to acquire and protect land suitable for nature reserves in the Lake Päijänne area and its surroundings.

We acquire land suitable for conservation purposes with donations from individuals and companies.

Close to 530 hectares of protected areas for the nature of the Päijänne region!

The foundation’s richly wooded forests and peat-rich bogs serve as significant carbon sinks and stores. Your donation will prevent climate change!
