What you can expect

  • Begin your day with a private pickup, taking you deep into tranquil nature to a secluded, traditional lakeside estate. Be welcomed with an all-inclusive, gourmet Finnish cottage breakfast featuring fresh local ingredients.

    Spend your day exactly as the locals do: wandering through quiet, moss-covered forests, kayaking on the glassy lake, or simply relaxing on the deck with a cold drink.

    The centrepiece of your day is the traditional wood-fired sauna. Your expert local guide will teach you the authentic rituals of Löyly (the sacred sauna steam) and guide you through the invigorating feeling of swimming in pristine, crisp lake water.

    This is an exclusive opportunity to experience the genuine cornerstone of Finnish happiness—unhurried, deeply peaceful, and fully catered with premium local foods and refreshments.
