lasketulle

Lasketulle is a Finnish fishing village located on the Ramslahti Bay in the Nuijamaa region, which is situated about 25 kilometers east of Lappeenranta in the Lappeenranta region. The area is an important fishing ground for many different species, including sturgeon, eel, and sculpin. The village is also a significant tourist destination due to its picturesque lake and nearby islands.

The name "Lasketulle" is derived from the Finnish words "laske" meaning "casting nets" and the suffix "-tulle" is often used to form place names. The village's economy mainly depends on fishing and related tourism activities. Fishing for sturgeon, a native species to the area, is largely practised by traditional, small-scale fisheries.

Lasketulle's calm interior is a result of small elevation changes in the area's terrain, close proximity to the lake, and purely rural surroundings. The climate of Lasketulle is subcontinental, characterized by harsh winters with moderate snowfalls and clear, cool autumns. A prime location on the waterline means Lasketulle experiences shifting patterns of sky-induced thermals.
