Summer Fun Finland Workshop Pre and Post Tour
Salla – in the middle of nowhere Pre Tour 28.08 – 30.08.2020
Salla is a small village in the Middle of Nowhere, in the embrace of wilderness and fells. Here you can find peace and quiet, pure nature and fresh, clean air. Experience the wilderness with a local guide or explore the surroundings on your own. And if you're lucky, in the autumn and winter you can spot the Northern Lights on the sky illuminating the amazing autumn colors. In Salla you can forget your worries and busy lifestyle and just let go and breathe.
