Travel notes for Marttila
From Wikivoyage
Marttila (Swedish: S:t Mårtens) is a small town and municipality in Finland Proper. This article covers also Koski (Koskis) in the north-east.
Understand+
Marttila has some 2,000 inhabitants, half of them in the centre, which is the only major settlement. Koski has 2,300 inhabitants, likewise with half of them in the centre.
The word Koski means rapids and indeed, Koski has several of them along Paimionjoki, with former mills for grain and industry. Koski has many namesakes, but only one used to be a municipality. To distinguish between the two, Koski is often called Koski Tl (for the former province).
Get in+
Highway 10 and Hämeen Härkätie between Turku and Hämeenlinna pass through Marttila and Koski, the latter through the centres, the former 2½ km north of them. Hämeen Härkätie is a historic route with medieval heritage. Highway 10 passes also Jokioinen and Forssa.
Road 224 leads from Salo via Marttila to Aura. Salo is on Highway 1; this is probably the most convenient route from Helsinki by car. Road 181 leads from Kimitoön via Paimio to Highway 10 in Tarvasjoki, 10 km west of Marttila.
Road 2407 starts 7 km north of Salo on Highway 52 (towards Somero) and leads to Koski. Road 2810 leads from Somero to Koski.
By bus:
Express coaches along Highway 10 (often Turku–Hämeenlinna–Lahti) stop at the highway junctions (from Turku to Marttila: €7–9, 30 min). The regular services, few in weekends, from Turku to Koski or Somero drive through also the Marttila centre, 45 min. See Matkahuolto.
From farther away with no direct connections, you should probably transfer in Hämeenlinna, Somero or Turku. Forssa may also be possible.
