I’m Marikka, your local guide. On my Nuuksio tours, I’ll take you into the forests and lakes of Nuuksio National Park – just 45 minutes from Helsinki. These are small, personal walks designed to help you slow down and feel the quiet beauty of Finnish nature."

What makes my Nuuksio tours different


These are not bus tours or big groups. When you join me in Nuuksio, it feels more like walking with a Finnish friend:


  • Small groups, so the experience stays personal

  • Stories of folklore, everyday traditions and how Finns connect with the forest

  • Time to pause - for birdsong, forest scents, or the silence over a lake - and to enjoy a warm drink with a traditional Finnish sweet treat in nature

Why Nuuksio National Park?


Only a short trip from the capital, Nuuksio National Park offers wild pine and spruce forests, rocky cliffs and still lakes. It’s where Helsinki locals go to recharge and one of Finland’s most beloved nature destinations. Visiting the Nuuksio park gives you a taste of Nordic wilderness without needing to travel far.

I guide three Nuuksio day trips from Helsinki:


  • The Robin Tour – a 2 km walk designed for shorter schedules and an easy, beginner-friendly pace.
  • The Hawk Tour – a 4 km forest walk with more time on the trails, suited for those looking for a moderate effort.
  • The Raven Tour - a 7 km hike for moderate+ level, good for those looking to spend a bit more time in nature. 


Each tour gives you space to enjoy the forest at a relaxed pace and leave with more than just photos — with a sense of connection. I believe forests hold something deeply restorative, and guiding in Nuuksio is my way of sharing that with visitors.
