To get the first impression of the Finish countryside, we went to Nuuksio National Park in the North East of Helsinki for a hike around fantastic lakes and rocks formed by mighty glaciers.

From the parking, different routes are marked. We chose the yellow 8km route, which was a lovely circular hike.

We had read that in Finland fireplaces are provided with dry wood, and already on our first hike we saw a couple of them – fantastic!



What a fantastic hike!
