Experience

Highlights
  • Explore the Finnish wilderness in a small group
  • Light a fire without using matches
  • Learn about animal footprints left in the snow in winter
  • See wild and beautiful places out of a fairytale in summer
Full description
In the winter time, enjoy views of huge snow drifts, white trails, and frozen trees. You will learn about the footprints that you find in the snow. It’s a shame the bears will be sleeping as they have a very impressive paw print. But not to worry as you still have the chance of passing tracks made by wolves, lynx, wolverines, moose, reindeer, and weasels. During the summer your guide will teach you about the nature that surrounds you. The aim of this tour is to show you wild and beautiful forests that look as if they are straight out of a fairytale. Your guide will help you to learn how to appreciate these places.  On every tour, your guide will show you how to build and light a fire without the use of matches. You will learn what to look for in the forests that allow you to make fire easily at any time without damaging any vegetation.

A special mention for Barbara! THANK YOU! It was a great time, in the middle of the forest, with the added bonus of a breathtaking view in the middle of the journey. Barbara is full of advice, smiling, and very attentive. We finished the walk at night with a wood fire and a sausage! I recommend 100%

We were accompanied by Barbara, very nice! A true force of nature. He taught us how to survive in the wild, a beautiful nature walk and breathtaking views. At the end of the excursion barbecue with marshmallows and sausages! Recommended 🤟🏼

A weak link in the group prevented us from doing the planned route because the physical conditions were a brake. I'm disappointed that it affected us. Apart from the name of 3 trees and a step of animals we didn't learn more things. Too bad but for the walk it's incredible the little break in the teepee over a wood fire is magnificent
