Kuninkaanlähde, Natural spring and archaeological site in Kankaanpää, Finland.

Kuninkaanlähde is a natural spring in Kankaanpää that discharges approximately 10,000 cubic meters of water daily, making it one of Finland's largest springs. The site includes camping areas with varying amenities, swimming pools, mini-golf, and modern service facilities.

The spring was named after King Adolf Fredrik's visit on July 17, 1752, when he left a memorial stone to commemorate the occasion. This royal visit established the name that the location carries to this day.

The spring area serves as a gathering place where visitors experience traditional Finnish leisure and community events throughout the seasons. Local traditions and outdoor activities remain central to how people use this space today.

The site features multiple camping options and remains accessible year-round to visitors. Service buildings and facilities are arranged throughout the grounds to help with orientation and provide what you need for a comfortable stay.

The site holds archaeological importance as the spring was a significant location for early human settlement in the region. This connection to ancient occupation makes it more than just a recreational destination.
