A day out in the finnish forest

The wilderness offers amazing experiences regardless of the season. Hiking trips in an untouched Finnish forests or swamps can be an unforgettable experience. We organize a day out in the Finnish nature with a wide variety of activities; although just the hiking itself can be an experience as such. We, however, recommend adding “clean food from a clean nature”-experience which means local delicasies from the surrounding nature.
In the winter the hiking can be swapped to cross-country skiing. The physical demands of the day are always tailored to Your needs.
Possibility of spending a night in a tent, even in the winter when it is truly an unforgettable experience. All equipment will be supplied.
The physical activity- part of the day takes around four hours. There are amazing sceneries within a 1-2 hour drive from Helsinki or Turku; something You cannot see from the high buildings in the city.

There will be plenty of activity for the evening and the night, below is an itinerary of a forest mushroom-themed day out.
