Top Nature Spots 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.

The zoo is quite spread out, so wear comfy shoes. I underestimated how much walking I’d be doing. My feet were killing me by the end of the day!

If you're visiting during the summer, bring a picnic. I found the food prices a bit steep, and there are plenty of nice spots to sit and enjoy your own snacks

Plan your visit around feeding times for the animals if you want to catch them being active! I saw a lot less action during midday when they were napping.

Check the schedule for any special animal talks or sessions before you go. I stumbled upon one by chance, and it was really informative and made my visit even better.

If you love nature, don't skip the hiking trails. I suggest starting early, around 8 AM, to avoid crowds and really soak in the beauty

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.

my advice is to wear comfy shoes. the park is pretty large, and you might find yourself walking a lot. trust me, blisters are not fun when you're trying to enjoy the scenery.

If you’re into bungee jumping, check the opening times in advance because it might close early, especially if the weather's not great. I was super bummed when I missed out because I didn’t check ahead.

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 visiting in the early morning around 8 AM. The park is much quieter then, so you can enjoy the sculptures and nature without too many people around. Plus, the lighting is fantastic for photos!

Do check out the visitor's center first. They have cool maps and tips on lesser-known trails. I skipped it and missed some hidden gems!

If you're into hiking, hit the trails early, around 7 AM. You'll save time and avoid the midday crowds, plus catch some breathtaking sunrise views. I missed it and regretted it!

If you plan to do more than one activity grab the combo tickets online. It saved me a bunch compared to buying them separately on site!

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.
