Hiking and Cycling Tours in Finland

Hiking and Cycling Tours in Finland, the Nordic Countries and Europe
We organise guided trips to national parks and other stunning natural destinations in Finland, the Nordic countries, and selected locations further afield. Routes lead through forest trails, bogs, and fells on foot or by bike, in harmony with the rhythm of the seasons.
A skilled guide navigates the routes on your behalf and looks after the group's wellbeing, so you can focus fully on experiencing nature. The trips offer refreshment, a chance to slow down, and let the scenery soothe the senses, while meeting fellow travellers in a competition-free zone.
Trip lengths range from a few hour walks or campfire moments in nearby nature all the way to multiday and even weeklong hikes.
Accommodation can be arranged according to your wishes: in cabins, guesthouses, or tents.
Aava Outdoors also organises tailored hikes for your own group — request a quote for a private hike!

Customer review:
"We hiked with Timo for six days in Karelia. We got to experience magnificent nature and stayed in idyllic places. Timo had put together a wonderfully varied route and prepared everything perfectly. In addition to hiking, we cooked together, had interesting conversations, and also did yoga under Timo's guidance. This shared week was truly wonderful, and we very much hope to explore more of Finland's regions with Timo in the future." — Alain Rappaport / Switzerland
10/10 — An Unforgettable Experience!
"I was looking for a guided long-distance hiking trip in Finland and fortunately found Aava Outdoors. We ended up joining a six-day hike that Timo Junttila had crafted individually for us, and it was a truly magnificent experience. The dramaturgy of the route was impressive: varied in scenery, physically challenging but never overwhelming — perfectly tailored to us. The choice of accommodation was also excellent. Every overnight stop was special and perfectly suited to our needs. Many thanks to Timo for his professional planning and careful execution. We would go hiking with Aava Outdoors again at any time." — Isabel Vogel / Switzerland
Hiking on foot — step by step, deeper into nature
Walking gives you space to notice details: the shape of the trail, the direction of the wind, the scent of the forest. Carrying a backpack adds a sense of self-sufficiency — you carry everything you need and move at your own pace.
Walking hikes are for you if you:
- enjoy moving through nature at a relaxed pace
- want to spend several hours or days outdoors
- appreciate a safely guided experience
- are looking for an escape from the everyday routine
On a guided hike, you don't need to worry about routes, schedules, or safety. A skilled guide handles the planning and the group's well-being, so you can focus on experiencing nature.
Cycling tours — light movement and ever-changing scenery
A cycling trip adds its own dimension to outdoor adventure. Moving along trails and cycling-friendly roads combines the flow of motion and landscape. On a bike you cover ground smoothly, but stop every now and then for a break.
Cycling tours are for you if you:
- want to cover a somewhat longer distance during the day
- enjoy being in nature without pressure to perform
- are looking for an active but gentle way to explore the outdoors
Routes are always chosen with safety, terrain suitability, and participants' experience in mind. It's not about speed or technical riding — it's about balanced movement in nature.

A hike can be a day's breather or a longer journey into nature and landscapes. What matters is to pause — and set off.
