Hiking & Canoeing in National Park
We say hiking, but it could be rambling, or just sitting by one of many lakes admiring the extreme wilderness beauty that is the Nuuksio National Park – or simply watching the wildlife in its natural setting. So close to the city, yet quite literally a world of its own, this is where the locals escape to unwind, and reconnect with the wild – and themselves.
Just a short drive from the city center, the Nuuksio National Park is like a microcosm of everything you’d expect of a Nordic wilderness, from ancient oak and pine forest and stunning lakes of all sizes, to rugged granite rockfaces, swamplands and a unique wildlife.
After exploring through the purest forests, take a canoe onto a picturesque lake and navigate the still waters with only the ducks, gulls and geese for company before returning to shore for a well-deserved barbeque of Finnish delights.
A real chance to enjoy the health benefits of nature – and just a short drive away from the bustling city center!
