Nature hike in Nuuksio National Park

Would you like to experience some Finnish nature? There is a national park just an hour outside of Helsinki and we offer a day hike there on Saturday 8th of June. 

We leave around ten o’clock (depending on the summer timetables, which are not yet released) and will return some time in the (late) afternoon. 

The programme includes a hike of some kilometers in the beautiful Nuuksio National park and a visit to Haltia Nature Centre, where we can eat a soup lunch and browse the exhibition. 

Bring comfortable shoes (sneakers are ok) and a rain jacket just in case. Also, sunscreen and a water bottle. Something to sit on is also good (can be a plastic bag or a newspaper). 

Costs are to be paid on the spot and includes: 

  • Travel 8,20 € (you need to buy your return ticket in town)
  • Lunch 13,50 € (optional, you can also bring snacks)
