Top Parks in Finland

Wear comfortable shoes! You'll want to stroll the paths and explore the surrounding area, so be prepared for a bit of walking.

I suggest checking the weather before you go. It started raining when I visited, and I wish I had brought my raincoat instead of just a hoodie!

If you're into photography, try to catch the sunset around 8 PM. The lighting is just stunning for those perfect shots. I didn't know, and missed out on some great pics!

I recommend renting a canoe or kayak if you get the chance! Paddling on the lake was the highlight of my trip. Just remember to book it in advance to save time!

My advice is to visit on a weekday if you can. The trails were way less crowded than on weekends, and I really enjoyed the peace and quiet.

Plan a picnic. Grab some local snacks at a nearby grocery store. It’s a great way to enjoy the park without splurging on overpriced food.

Check out the local events calendar before you go. I stumbled upon a free outdoor concert that made my trip even more special.

I think you should grab a picnic from a local store and chill on the grass by the water. The views are awesome and it's way more relaxing than a crowded café. Just be prepared for seagulls to steal your snacks!

I suggest bringing your own snacks and drinks. The prices at the visitor centers can be a bit high and packing a picnic can really save you some cash.

don’t bother with pricey guided tours; grab a map from the visitor center and explore the trails yourself. you can see just as much at your own pace and save some cash.

If you're planning to swim, wear water shoes! The riverbed can be rocky, and it’s better to be prepared than to regret it later.

I suggest packing a good lunch and plenty of water. There are some nice spots to chill and have a picnic and trust me food always tastes better surrounded by nature!
