When we have arrived at the national park, we will begin our walk through the forest to some of our favourite berry-picking spots. Our guide will explain which berries are edible as well as provide information about the forest and wildlife around you. While picking berries we will make our way to the campfire by the lakeside. While your guide starts to cook Finnish-style lunch, there will be plenty of time to take photos, snack on the berries, and experience the tranquillity of the Taiga forest. After lunch, we will continue to explore the natural beauty of Liesjärvi while making our way back to the starting point. The day will be complete with your stomach full of berries and you will be fully charged from this wonderful nature experience. -- You spend about 4.5 hours in the national park (+ transfers).
