Tampere in Finland is the sauna capital of the world.

Whether it's a public sauna or a private one in your own accommodation, you'll relax everywhere in the Tampere region.

Tampere is also perfect for nature lovers. We'll show you where you can stay in a cottage in the forest in Kintulammi National Park, right by the lake and with your own sauna. Tampere is about 2 hours by car or train away from Helsinki.

Tampere's city centre is marked by its industrial history. The Finlayson factory site has been redeveloped and now houses restaurants and cafés, and offers space for lots of activities. Out of town, we head into nature together with Markus from Borealquest. He shows us how to make a fire in the wilderness and how to find our way without Google Maps. A really exciting experience.
