Overview
Spend a great getaway day and experience the best of Finnish countryside.
Leave the city behind and head to Mathildedal – a hidden gem on the southwestern coast of Finland. Far from the tourist trail, this is a beloved escape for locals who know Finland best.
Wander through a living, breathing historic ironworks village, meet fluffy alpacas, taste local food or craft beer brewed right in the village, browse artisan shops filled with handmade alpaca knitwear, and lose yourself in the ancient forests and waterways of Teijo National Park. Breathe in the fresh sea air, listen to the stream turning the old water wheel, and slow down the way only the Finnish countryside allows. Just two hours from Helsinki, this is countryside Finland at its very best.
