To enjoy your stay with us, the best way is that you are being active and in a good shape. You'll be immersed in nature and at the time, you are going to be on your own. We support you by adjusting the tour you are interested in, and if you would like to shorten it or extend it!

Canoeing, orienteering, land transportation, cooking, find an overnight place, etc.
