Welcome to the New Chainsaw Sculpture Park at Sylvi’s World!
In the summer of 2026, Sylvin Maailma (Sylvi’s World) introduces a brand-new attraction: a dedicated Chainsaw Sculpture Park. This unique addition celebrates the raw beauty of Finnish nature combined with world-class craftsmanship.
The park features five massive wooden sculptures crafted by the two-time Finnish chainsaw carving champion, August Eskelinen. These impressive works depict wildlife indigenous to the Hauhia village area, including the majestic moose, the elegant crane, and the soaring white-tailed eagle. Eskelinen’s artistry transforms solid wood into lifelike monuments that capture the spirit of the wild.
