Activities outdoor in Finland

Depending on the season in which we visit the country, we will be able to enjoy different activities in Finland.

In Winter, with almost the whole country covered by the snow, it is an ideal moment to go for excursions with sledges pushed by huskies, or hiking excursions. A main attraction is to visit Lapland and observe one of the world's most spectacular lights "the Aurora Borealis".

In the central part of the country one of the main attractions are the spectacular landscapes of lakes and forests. In winter time there are infinite opportunities for skating on these natural majestic natural mirrors. After such activities there is nothing better than a traditional sauna, visitors are going to find in mostly each place of the country as the offer of huts and accommodations including sauna facilities is really huge.

During the spring and summer time, when days are larger than in the winter, other activities can be enjoyed which do not need thick cloth. It is a suitable season for practicing boating or rafting, discover routes by biking across the country.
