Sipoonkorpi National Park Excursion + Finnish Sauna

On this excursion, we will meet at Mannerheiminaukio in central Helsinki and travel by minibus to Sipoonkorpi National Park, approximately 40 minutes to the north.

Upon arrival, we will embark on a hiking route showcasing the landscapes of Finland, rich in local wildlife, including various birds and mammals typical of southern Finnish forests. Throughout the tour, we will make several stops to learn about the wildlife and observe lakes, cliffs, and rock formations.

Midway through the hike, we will stop by a lake to enjoy a typical meal. Afterward, we will continue along the trails until we reach a smoke sauna, a significant aspect of Finnish culture. Participants can enter the sauna, where temperatures range from 80 to 100 degrees Celsius, and water is poured over the rocks to create steam. Afterward, guests have the option to take a refreshing dip in the adjacent lake.

Finally, we will walk back to the starting point and return to Helsinki by minibus, concluding the Sipoonkorpi National Park tour after a total of 6 hours.
