Activities | You can see the entire Heart if you move around
A walk in the soothing silence of the forest. This is what Finland is about! And here you can experience it. The clean nature with woods and hundreds of lakes is at the core of the Heart of Finland. If you enjoy hiking and mountain biking, you will not run out of options. In the winter, you can try snowshoes or skis – or skates! Our vast waters favour canoeists and friends of fishing.
