Travel Plan

Gathering in the Port of Tallinn

Let’s meet in front of the harbor and make a joint greeting

You drove to the starting point of the hiking trail

Helsinki to Ruka is 840 kilometers, which takes about 10 hours with breaks

Crossing the hiking trail

We go through the hiking trail and the difficulties that arise as a team, in a good mood, at a leisurely pace and enjoying every step. We take pictures and take breaks on the beautiful slopes.
We sleep in a tent, tent or forest huts. We prepare food on a campfire or camping stove. During the hike, we refresh ourselves in the clear lake water and also visit the sauna once during the hike (not mandatory)

Let's drive back to the Helsinki West Terminal

Waking up in the fresh air in the morning is very pleasant and worth enjoying. We will make the rounds and have breakfast and start our way back to Helsinki
