Nature at Night Tour from Helsinki, 3 hours

Join us on a truly unique excursion into Sipoonkorpi National Park by nightfall. 
This short evening trip will start from Helsinki and take you into a national park which is
only 30 minutes by car from the city center.
During the evening, it will be very quiet in the park as most visitors have gone home already. 

Walking through the forest after dark is a wonderful experience and will surely
be an emotional ride for those who have never done it. Our imaginations
tend to go into overdrive and before we know it old fallen trees and
boulders start taking on the shape of lions, tigers, and bears! Luckily,
we do not have any lions or tigers in Finland… 

Fortunatelyfor us we will have plenty of natural distractions to keep our
imagination at bay.  Sipoonkorpi National Park is home to an array of
nocturnal mammals and birds. The most fascinating to us being the
Eurasian eagle-owl with its activity focused in the first few hours after sunset.
Vocal activity is almost entirely confined to the colder months from late fall through winter. 

Equipped with a professional guide and flashlights your journey will no doubt be
safe! Our walk takes place on a very wide and well-maintained trail
which is easy to navigate in the night. After a short walk through the forest we will end up at the campfire location
where we can drink hot juice and barbecue Finnish sausages.
