Hiking

Setting out late in the evening, we discover how nature prepares for the coming night, then hike through the night-time silence. In a suitable location, we build a fire and enjoy tasty snacks accompanied by pot-brewed coffee. Continuing our hike, it’s not long before the birds, animals and insects start a new day. A substantial breakfast is waiting for us when we reach our destination, and sauna is available on request.

We meet out guide on the bank of the river that flows through Purnus near Siuntio Church Village, a place where Aleksis Kivi once stood and where the area’s natural beauty gave him strength to continue his writing. Following in Aleksis Kivi’s footsteps, we walk to the Flaggberget rocks, where Siuntio’s residents once lit Whitsun and Midsummer bonfires and danced the night away.

Guided hiking through a seaside landscape. We set out from Störsvik in Siuntio, stop for coffee on the way and end up at Kopparnäs in Inkoo. The shoreline and seaside scenery are marvellous - plants, animals and the sounds of nature. A delicious buffet meal will be waiting for you in Kestikievari at Kopparnäs.

This area of old forest has remained untouched for more than a hundred years. Situated in Lohja some 45 minutes from Helsinki by car, the feature which makes the Karnainen Backwoods unique - Finland’s longest tunnel - lies under the forest floor. During our trek we enjoy the forest sounds and changing scenery, and make nature observations.
