Going out to nature does good to us, that is generally known. It's always fun, and sometimes you encounter even more. I saw this weekend something special, a first in my life.
Perfect pastime for a Corona weekend

Hikes around Finland, eventually filling every month of the year, both the popular destinations and quieter ones. In same week opposite seasons: December vs. June and so on.
Autumn colors this year
Autumn colors are over for this year now, but come and see six pics!
First snow
I've been hiking a lot lately, and therefore I've had too little time for blogging. I try to be more active now! Here's some pics from first snow hikes.
Canoeing in sunset
One evening here we only had less than two hours before it got dark. Was there any sense in going for a short canoeing tour? Sure was! Wonderful sunset!
Cool summer, but also beachy days
The news tell it has been a record breaking hot July in Europe. Not so in Northern Finland, it's been cool here. But there was one hot week (meaning +25C) at the end of July, and we spent that on beaches. See pics!
The beauty of old-growth forest!
Old-growth, natural forest is such a beautiful place!
55 km hike with kids
Day hiking with children is easy and fun. Heading out to longer excursions requires more, but it is possible. Here are lots of pictures of our family hike along Hetta-Pallas trail.
Perfect day on the fells
