Just a thought...

A mere 30-45 minutes train ride from Helsinki (and approx. 5 euros ow) there`s a truly excellent Bushcraft wonderland...the Meiko Wilderness area in Kirkkonummi. Several lakes, more or less pristine forest, fishing, wildlife...and of course...making your own tent-sauna!

If you`re interested, put together a group on this site (in the near future) and IŽll be glad to take you guys there... :)

P.S. I don`t do this stuff for money anymore... :)

sounds promising...

do you have some more details. For instance, are you thinking of certain dates or periodes and how long would you want to make the trip?

I am still not sure where to go this summer and I haven't been to finland yet... are there good trails to walk?

Right...here goes :)

My original thought was to toss up an idea for a long weekend (for example), and just get together a small group of like-minded individuals keen on the outdoors...and visit a new site easily accessible in this modern day era of cheap flights...kind of like a bushcraft version of the Adventure Travel magazine Spam Challenge...

Sometime this summer would be fine...what I don`t want, is to have to start "organising" too much... :)
