About Koitajoki
Koitajoki is a river. Location: Finland.
Koitajoki (or the Koita River) (Russian: Койтайоки) is a river in Eastern Finland and partly in Russia in Northern Europe. Having its origin near the international boundary in Ilomantsi of Northern Karelia, Finland, the Koitajoki River enters the Republic of Karelia in Russia, before returning to Finland some 30 kilometres (19 mi) further south. It then flows northwest through the Petkeljärvi National Park and the Kesonsuo bog area, and further downstream receives the outflow from Lake Koitere.
