Kannus

Kannus is a town in Central Ostrobothnia.

Understand
One of the larger towns in the Central Ostrobothnia and the Southern Oulu region (making up the "river valleys" region), Kannus unsurprisingly is bisected by a river - Lestijoki. It's also comparatively accessible by public transit even from further away as the main track from Helsinki up to Lapland passes through.

By train
The Ostrobothnia track (the western one of Finland's main north-south tracks) goes through Kannus, so there are direct trains from among others Helsinki, Tampere, Turku, Seinäjoki, Kokkola, Oulu and Rovaniemi.

By car
Highway 28 connects to Kokkola from the west and Highway 4 (Finland) and Kajaani from the east. Local road 775 goes to Himanka on the coastal Highway 8.

By bus
Buses connect from Kokkola and neighbouring towns and villages.
