A really fun trip, great guide friendly, easy to talk to and chat with, fun facts and a good amount of information. Great views on and around the little hike. We had just a little group my group of 3 and two older members, a really good size for the group. Even the drizzle and light rain mid morning onwards did not put a damper on the day. Trip started with meeting up near the train station, about 30mins on the train then 30mins on the bus (local transport is a dream!). Arrived at the destination guide gave us some information about the National Park, explained what we were going to do, started out little hike with friendly chat and facts as we explored tla couple of trials, lakes and plenty of trees 🌳.

Full description

If you’re planning a visit to Helsinki, be sure to include a half day for a trip to Nuuksio National Park, located within the boundaries of greater Helsinki. It takes about an hour and a half by public transportation to reach the park from the city center.

You’ll be met in the center of Helsinki, and travel by commuter train to Espoo center and then take a local bus to the park entrance.

The park is ranked among the top 10 nature attractions in Finland and is a must-see. To get the most from your visit, it’s best to let an experienced guide and professional naturalist lead the way.

Enjoy the scenic beauty of the tall coniferous or mixed forest, with trees growing around enormous primeval rocks, in an area that’s rich with mosses and ferns. You’ll come across numerous small forest lakes.

With your biologist guide you’ll trek through the tall forest, learn about the natural features of Finland, enjoy scenic views, and hopefully spot some wildlife.
