Embark on a serene journey through a snowy paradise in a Finnish National Park on this all-day expedition. This adventure package includes a hearty meal beside a cozy fire, transport arrangements from Helsinki, and the guidance of a seasoned wilderness professional.
Inclusive Features:
• Encounter the tranquility only a winter woodland can offer
• Minimal tourist traffic during the nippy season
• Enjoy a hearty meal the Finnish way inside a Winter Kota (native Finnish cabin)
• Experience the soothing ambiance of the winter woods
Winter gives us a chance to observe the woods in their majestic glory. Snowflakes gently descend and shroud the entire woodland, hugging the trunks and lending a serene quiet to the surrounding foliage. You might think the woods lay dormant in the freezing months, but upon closer inspection, one can spot traces of wildlife such as the red fox, mountain hare, and moose.
This uncrowded destination remains untouched by hordes of tourists, offering us a peaceful exploration of the park.
