Nature at its finest - Absolutely picture perfect weather. Plenty of snow , no wind & clear skies. David is a great guide & it’s so peaceful & serene to get out into nature. The mushroom soup was beautiful & I would thoroughly recommend this activity

Great escape to nature! - This was a really nice half day trip to get out of the city. David communicated wonderfully the entire time. The meeting location was very central and very easy to find. I did this trip in winter and the park was so magically fille with snow covered trees, but that didn't stop us from learning about the local flora and fauna. We had a little extra time so we climbed up to an overlook and had great views. David provided wonderful snacks and a delicious mushroom soup for lunch. He spent the time talking to all of us and really cared for the group. I'm so happy I booked this and I definitely recommend it for a little get away from the city. The hike itself was easy and all ages could do it.

We had the pleasure of... - We had the pleasure of joining a guided tour by David through Nuuksio National Park, and we couldn't be more impressed. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, offering fascinating insights into the local flora and wildlife. The hike was well-paced, with plenty of opportunities to stop, learn, and take in the stunning natural beauty. The trails were peaceful. We especially appreciated the guide's enthusiasm and the way he adjusted the experience to the group's interests.
By the way he is a good photographer :).
During the hike he served us warm “Glögi” with finish sweets and at the end we ate his self made mushroom soup with mushrooms he harvested himself, delicious!
Whether you're a nature lover or just looking for a relaxing escape, this tour is an absolute must.
All in all it was a great experience, thank you!! :)

Magic in the woods - This was just the best hike ever. David loves what he does and has figured out the best way to do it all. It was so fun to find and identify mushrooms and berries (including ones hiding in the bog.) I thought having the yummy soup at the end of the hike sitting on furs in a lovely spot by a lake was brilliant. It gave us the maximum time to hike in the woods and meant we didn’t have to wait to heat up the soup. Sharing a meal was a lovely way to finish our time together.

Great half day just away from Helsinki - We hiked a loop in Nuuksio National Park we our guide, David. The weather was cold but did not rain. It was easy even for4 seniors in a group of eight. David gave a lot of information and the snacks provided were excellent. Had a great morning. The drive to and fro was very beautiful with the fall season colors in full glory. Recommend this hike for all.

Nice excursion close to Helsinki for a taste of the Finnish forest - Very informational hike! Pick berries! See mushrooms! Eat soup! We had a lot of fun on this tour — it’s not an easy stroll but it’s not like crazy hard. Comfortably between. About 5k — it’s a great length of an excursion right outside the city! Perfect for anyone looking to add a little nature onto their trip.

Experience Finnish nature close by Helsinki - I feel like this is the perfect length tour for a little excursion outside Helsinki. You do about a 5k loop with the option to do a little extra stuff between. David is very knowledgeable and shows you all kinds of plants and mushrooms. Very fun hike, but the highlight is the soup at the end! 😋 Be prepared for some rocky and uneven terrain - it’s not a hard hike but it’s not like an easy stroll. Comfortably between!
