Berry picking and wildlife
Escape the city for a day and join us for this authentic nature experience! During this trip, you will walk through a national park and pick your own wild berries.
Finland is one of the best places in the world for foraging wild foods. Whether you are here to experience the Finnish culture of berry picking or simply taste the most natural berries nature provides, you will treasure this intimate experience in Finland's wilderness. Our tours are exclusive since our group size never exceeds 8 persons.
On this tour, we fill our baskets with Finnish superfoods such as blueberries and lingonberries. These are rich with vitamins and nutrients and sweeter than any berry you could buy from the stores!
We take you to Liesjärvi national park which is a hidden gem of Southern Finland. This national park is very quiet so we can collect berries at our own pace. A breathtaking landscape carved by glaciers and shrouded by old-growth forest provides a magical setting to spend the day foraging.

Experience a Finnish Smoke Sauna
When you want to do the most Finnish thing possible - you have to visit a sauna!
Join us and get an authentic sauna experience! Our tours are exclusive since our group size never exceeds 8 persons.
During this guided tour, we will take you to a smoke sauna, which is held in the highest esteem by most Finns. It is a mixed sauna so a bathing suit is required.
As the smoke sauna is heated to around 80-100 degrees Celsius, water is thrown on the rocks (which we have a word for here in Finland: Löyly). This sends a wave of heat throughout the sauna, which in turn helps you to relax, relieve stress, release sweat to flush toxins, help muscle stiffness, and clear your skin.
The sauna is located by the lake so after we have heated up enough there is a change for a refreshing swim!
Highlights:
• Experience an authentic Finnish smoke sauna
• Swim in a freshwater lake
• Ultimate relaxing experience
• Do the most Finnish thing possible

We had a very nice and relaxing trip on our recreation day to Sipoonkorpi National Park and to Porvoo Old Town. A short 30min drive from the city centre of Helsinki was only it took to get us into the park. Had a short 30min walk from the car to a nice spot next to a lake. The staff started to cook us dinner (a delicious salmon soup) while our group took some time to get around the lake. Some beautiful scenery and really relaxing atmosphere there. Bring shoes that you don't mind getting wet, if it has been raining! Then we gathered around a fireplace to have dinner and dessert and after that it was time to go to Porvoo. Went for a walk around the really sympathetic and beautiful old town with a lot of small cool alleyways between colourful buildings. After what we did some shopping and went for a drinks. Really nice trip, very nice and outgoing staff who loved to tell us about the nature. I would highly recommend this for example a recreation day activity for your team or to a foreign groups/couples visiting Helsinki who would like to get a glimpse of a true Finnish nature in southern Finland.…
