Due to the Russian war on Ukraine, the canal is currently not in use!
The Saimaa canal connects the Gulf of Finland to Lake Saimaa and connected lakes. Thousands of miles of marked channels, about 100 marinas, several canals, cities, nature reserves and historic sites all await a boater on Lake Saimaa. For an up-to-date guide to the Saimaa canal, see [ Ссылка ].
