Saimaa Lake
Finland, Lappeenranta city

Saimaa is the largest and most famous Finnish lake. Hundreds of small islands rise from the crystal clear waters. Their steep banks are stony and tall pine trees grow in the depths. The combination of a quiet smooth surface of the lake with a blue sky creates a full sensation of falling into a fairy tale ...
Only on Saimaa you can meet a unique animal - the lake Saimaa seal. There are no more than 500 individuals, but the population is gradually growing.
A good summer vacation in Finland is a real active vacation. What could be more pleasant than a leisurely gliding of a kayak on the water surface of a lake?
Equipped parking lots of the Saimaa islands, clear water, an abundance of mushrooms and berries, guaranteed fishing and the ecological culture of the Finns make an unforgettable trip around Saimaa.
Kayaking is the most affordable and exciting outdoor activity for parents with children. From 10 years old, you can safely trust the paddle to a young rower!
The seven-day ring routes begin and end in Lappeenranta, a quiet, cozy town near the border.
