Lake-to-Lake Paddle (via Lake Muotkajärvi)

A short, tight and exhilarating rapid comes near the start, normally suitable for beginners but a little intimidating in high water. The rest is a beautiful flat-water journey through gorgeous scenery, an after-work favourite of our guides. The facilitated journey, including car transfer and canoe or kayak hire, costs €50 / person.
