Aava Outdoors

Tailor-made trips into nature, tours, hiking, yoga, relaxation, and photography courses in Finland and beyond.

Aava Outdoors organizes guided tours to national parks and other stunning destinations in nature. Journeying through forest trails, marshlands, and fell regions, we travel on foot or by bike, navigate waterways by canoe, and traverse snowy winter landscapes on skis or snowshoes.

​Our skilled guides navigate trails and waterways for you, leading to safe routes while ensuring the safety of the group, so that you can fully immerse yourself in experiencing the surrounding nature.

​On our trips, the time is used to rejuvenate and connect with nature, find tranquility, and to allow the landscapes to soothe your senses. With the chance to engage with fellow travellers in a competition-free zone.

​The duration of our excursions varies from two-hour walks or campfire moments in local nature to week-long hiking, or tours to places of cultural interest.

Cultural & Thematic Tours


Timo's trip to Bauhaus Dessau and Berlin in 2018. The theme was photography, which, for me, meant the lightest possible interpretation. I was greatly interested in Bauhaus, and it did not disappoint. 


Access to the venues, staying in the minimalist student dormitory, and visits to houses designed by master architects were captured in pictures. 


It was fascinating to compare the group's snapshots of shared experiences. The Berlin part, guided by someone who had lived and studied there, shed light on aspects I had not experienced in previous trips to Berlin. A small group, shared interests, and well-planned content and scheduling turned a solo traveler into a group traveler on this journey.

Hiking and Yoga


Hiking and yoga in the mountains of Montenegro was an unforgettable experience. The landscapes were breathtaking and offered peace and quiet – a perfect contrast to the everyday hustle. 

The journey included both physical activity and adventure, as well as moments of relaxation and recovery. The knowledgeable tour organizer took care of logistics and practicalities, allowing the mind to truly rest, making the vacation feel like a real holiday.

Canoe Trek


Kolovesi Nationalpark

Thank you Timo, Jaana, Antti, Riitta, Katariina and Outi – for an amazing trip! Sitting here now in this October weather and wind, I find myself wondering if it even really happened.

– Katri


Many thanks again to the organizers for your care and to everyone for the great company! I feel a bit like I've just woken up from a dream – but those photos definitely prove that we did paddle.

– Outi


Thank you all for a wonderful trip. Back home now, it truly feels like the whole journey was an unreal little bubble in nature – but these are exactly the kinds of bubbles we need more of in life. :)
