How to Visit Finnish Lakeland
To reach Finnish Lakeland, travellers can fly into Helsinki and connect to regional cities like Jyväskylä and Mikkeli, with accessible transport links throughout the region. The best time to visit is summer, when the long, light-filled days create ideal conditions for exploring the region’s stunning lakes and forests. Visitors can enjoy lake cruises, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boarding on the pristine waters, or go hiking and cycling along scenic trails that wind through lush landscapes. Fishing enthusiasts can try their luck in the abundant lakes, while those looking to relax can unwind in a traditional Finnish sauna by the water’s edge.
