Finland activity holiday in Nuuksio National Park

Planet

- All of the transportation on this ecological holiday is done mostly by bicycle and once by train to minimize the total carbon emissions of moving.

- This tour is carried out in a national park, which is a unique and protected piece of nature for the Finnish people. It is also an important part of the Finnish way of preserving nature and the environment.

- 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 activity suppliers that have a strict ecological approach when moving in nature.

- All of the meals included in the tour are vegan, vegetarian and/or prepared from local ingredients. This reduces the carbon emissions generated in the production and in the transport of the food. On this tour you will also gather food from the forest and most importantly, learn what there is to eat.

- Every accommodation in the tour has an ecological certification which means that they are fully committed into operating ecologically throughout their services.

- All of the suppliers in this tour share the same sustainable and environmental values as us. Together we are committed to reduce the impact to the environment in many ways, for example in this product by using low carbon or renewable energy, recycling and reducing waste (bio, plastic, metal, cardboard, etc.) and using old building materials or creating carbon sinks by using wood in the construction of new accommodation services.

- A carbon footprint for this tour has been calculated. More information is available by the tour provider.
