Hirvivaara-Rostua is a quiet hunting area located on the border of North Savo and North Karelia. The hunting area consists of three different areas. The hunting area is mostly used for forestry, and the impact of it can be seen in the area. There are some small open mires in the area. For the most part, the area is characterised by a variation of heaths and drained mires.
