- This tour is carried out in Nuuksio national park, which is a unique and protected area of nature to preserve unique ecosystems for future generations.

- Every activity on this tour is "human powered". This means that in the activities like example paddling, hiking or cycling you only move with the power created by human. We have also chosen certified activity suppliers.
