WILD BERRIES AND MUSHROOMS PICKING TOUR: Pick, Prepare, Savor

In Finland, wild berries and mushrooms can be freely picked in the forests thanks to the everyman’s right, but care must be taken as some varieties are poisonous. Fortunately, your experienced nature guide will help identify safe and edible options, making the hike both enjoyable and educational. Walking through varied terrain amid unspoiled nature is not only an adventure for the senses but also excellent exercise. The berries, nurtured by the midnight sun, are especially healthy and can be eaten fresh right from the forest. This experience is a perfect way to connect with nature while learning about the local ecosystem and its seasonal gifts.

The tour begins with a ride to secret berry and mushroom spots where you can start picking nature’s healthy treasures. During the walk, participants fill their baskets and taste fresh berries along the way. A relaxing break with coffee, juice, and local snacks allows everyone to recharge and enjoy the peaceful forest surroundings. This activity is suitable for families with children, making it a fun and educational outdoor experience for all ages. The best season for berries and mushrooms typically lasts from late summer to early autumn, and the tour operates in all weather conditions, ensuring an authentic adventure no matter the sky.
