Small lake that is fed from springs - thus relatively clear water. Dead trees have fallen in to the lake and there are usually small groups of fish (mainly perch) under these trees. Were nice ambiance on a sunny day. Altough access is not difficult to find, the route there may be, so it might be wise to ask a local diver to guide you there.
Ruutanalampi. Dirt road goes about 20 m from the shore, good place to park after a fairly steep hill down.
