According to the North Karelia Environment Center, Kuorinka is a unique lake in North Karelia due to its brightness, ruggedness and location. It is one of the most representative lakes in Finland in terms of its habitat type (low-nutrient lakes with abundant benthic vegetation). The lake is of great importance e.g. fishing and other recreational uses. The water quality is excellent.

Kuorinka is known for its resting place on Highway 9, which is one of the most popular resting places in Eastern Finland. There is a wide, shallow beach. There is a light traffic route from Joensuu to the resting place, and the route is popular with roller skaters, among other things.
