The area was granted protection status in on 10 May 1984 to preserve the valuable groves and river nature. The protected area on the Vantaa side of the river was extended in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pitk\u00e4koski rapids stretch for around one kilometre and are the longest natural rapids in the lower reaches of the river. Lush conifer groves grow along either side of the rapids. Among the conifers, which are over 100 years old, grow hazel bushes, fly honeysuckle, mezereon and colourful flowering plants such as touch-me-not balsams, spring peas and alternate-leaved golden saxifrage. Information boards and marked trails make it easy to explore the nature in the area. There are also viewing platforms on either side of the river.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/pitkakosken-rinnelehtoa.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/pitkakosken-rinnelehtoa.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/pitkakosken-rinnelehtoa-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/pitkakosken-rinnelehtoa-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Pitk\u00e4koski groves <em>Jussi Helim\u00e4ki<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Pitk\u00e4koski groves area is owned by the cities of Helsinki and Vantaa: 4.74 hectares [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6615,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[147],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3081","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-haltiala"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/pk-pitkakoskenrinnelehto-JussiHelimaki.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3081","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3081"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3081\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12016,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3081\/revisions\/12016"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6615"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3081"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3081"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3081"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
