Kivihaka (Finnish), Stenhagen (Swedish) is a neighborhood of Helsinki, Finland. Kivihaka is a small and idyllic neighborhood next to Etelä-Haaga, on the other side of Hämeenlinnanväylä. In Kivihaa, you live in a peaceful and forested environment, but the services of Etelä Haaga are very close. Pasila and shopping center Tripla are also only a short distance away. The best thing about Kivihaa is the opportunities for outdoor activities - the extensive walking paths of Keskuspuisto open right from the front door, and the Pirkkola sports grounds and the Pasila sports hall are also in the neighborhood. Hämeenlinnanväylä's fast buses make getting to the center easy.
