Tikkurilankoski, Rapids on Keravanjoki River in Vantaa, Finland.
The Tikkurilankoski rapids stretch for 400 meters from Kuninkaalantie bridge, creating natural water formations along the Keravanjoki River.
A concrete dam built between 1912 and 1913 previously controlled these rapids, providing power to a linseed oil factory until its removal in 2019.
The rapids now serve as a regulated fishing zone where anglers can catch rainbow trout while respecting strict preservation rules for wild fish species.
Fishing permits for Tikkurilankoski can be obtained at Tikkurila Vantaa Info center, with additional requirements for a national fisheries management fee.
Since the dam removal, migrating trout populations have returned to spawn in the rapids, with specimens observed 200 meters upstream from the former barrier.
