Nature and Wildlife by the Baltic Sea

On your nature walk around the wild archipelago, you will be learning about its many diverse habitats with a qualified wilderness guide. Over rolling rock trails and mossy forest floors, your walk will bring you the perfect place for a break overlooking the Baltic Sea. Your guide will prepare a Finnish-style lunch for you to enjoy. While lunch is being prepared, you will be free to take in the wonderful landscapes and find your peace in nature.

Every season is unique in Porkkala and seeing wildlife is a regular occurrence in the nature reserve. During the migration seasons (spring & fall), it is even possible to see great masses of birds covering the sky as they migrate. A spectacle to behold!

We believe that nature heals. Surrounded by natural wonders and incredibly diverse habitats this half-day in the archipelago will rekindle your love for the great outdoors.
