Great 8 km Hike with Delicious Treats. - First of all, I'd like to thank David, my tour guide, for being so courteous and returning to my hotel second time to pick me up after I overslept. This kindness set a positive tone for the entire day.
The hiking was great. We walked around 8 km through stunning Finnish taiga landscape, swamps alternating with forest, with multiple stops when David educated us about local berries, plants, some Finnish history and traditions. So if you love nature, this is for you.
Also, worth mentioning that it was a good opportunity to meet new people since all 3 persons on this tour, including me, were from different countries.
Last but not least, we were treated with some delicious herb/berry tea and absolutely amazing mushroom soup - all home made by David's wife. Thank you!
