With Finland consisting of so many little islands, it is humbling to do a tour through what feels like an enormous area but in reality is still a tiny part of the country. Gorgeous way to spend a few hours on the water, passing by pristine forests, little cabins and piers, and seeing a variety of birds that inhabit the area. We went to the pier area to buy tickets around 5:40pm (managed to catch one of the later tours, but check time tables in advance so you don't miss out). It was 25 euros per person for 3 hours. You can have food and drinks on the boat as well if you want to make it a dinner your. Bring a jacket, it's cold on the water in the month of July, but they had little blankets onboard as well if you don't mind using little communal fleece blankets to wrap up (they seemed completely clean).

4.5Sipoonkorpi National Park(10 reviews) - You will not experience this kind of nature 30 minutes drive away from the centre of the capital in any other country National Parks
Sipoonkorpi national park area forms the core of the forest massif just 30 minutes drive away from the centre of the capital of Finland. There are lots of other wooded areas outside of the actual park boundaries as well. You can begin anywhere, there are marked trails as well as wilderness where only the Maps application is your friend. It's good to have a knowledgeable local showing you the way. It's a heaven for mushroom and berry picking, experiencing ancient forests that have been spared from logging and nature at its best.See more..
