Overview Tour Itinerary Enquire Now

This is a four nights and five days package for Khumo, Finland. You would get optimum chances to sight and picture The Brown Bears, Wolverines, Grey Owls and Red Fox from your hides during the night. The hides are cozy, comfortable and strategically placed so that you can photograph these shy nocturnal animals from various angles. After long hours of gaping retreat yourself with Finland special –Sauna experience. You can opt for activities as per your interests and depending upon your season of visit – hiking, rapids, guided nature walks, birding, canoeing or simply sleep over and prepare for the night at hides!

Kuhmo: Kuhmo (originally Kuhmoniemi) is a northern city of Finland which shares borders with Russia in east. Kuhmo is known for its unique and rustic forest experience, away from the city and crowd-It’s one of the few forests where you can hear the birds chirping and wolves howling! The city has around 600 lakes and low hill topography – tourists love rapids and guided nature walks during the day. The main attraction of Khumu is its ‘wildlife watching programs’ - gape at shy Brown Bears, Wolverines and Rein deers from hides in the darkness of night. The bears are unaware of your presence and behave naturally in the backdrop of lakes and tall standing pine trees.

Kuhmu has around 10000 inhabitants who are phenomenal at winning hearts of tourists. Locals are extremely generous and considerate when it comes to hospitality. Kuhmu International Music festival is highly recommendable for July tourists. Also visit ‘Petola Visitor Centre’ for an influx of Khumu culture and forest history!

Sauna: Sauna is a cleansing ritual which originated in Finland and is religiously done each day by the Fins. It is a Finnish way to cure, heal and free your body and mind from stress. It starts with a routine shower after which you would be invited to take off your clothes and enter a room filled with steam of hot water. The body is cleansed as sweat makes its way through the skin pores. Leaves of Birch trees are often provided to flagellate lightly on your body. This stimulates blood circulation and leaves a light aroma. You can enter sauna as many times you want. Diving straight into the lake after sauna or rolling in the Ice completes the Sauna experience. The sauna holds great significance in Finnish culture- it is believed to cure all ills and makes you meet your solace! A sauna especially in Finland should not be missed out of shyness- rather it should be thoroughly enjoyed! The staff would provide you with towels if you need them and you can decide your Sauna pairs among yourself prior to your Sauna experience
