Come and spend a nice relaxing summer day in the beautiful shore landscape of Lake Haapajärvi. Experience the thrill of fishing, enjoy the gentle steam of a traditional Finnish smoke sauna and refresh yourself in a clean lake away from disturbing city noises and rush! Try out fishing on shore rocks with a basic fishing rod and worms as bait or row the boat a little further out on the lake. You can also swim and enjoy the gentle steam of our smoke sauna.
Finally, together with the chef of Haapaniemi, we will grill local fish dishes, meat delicacies and seasonal vegetables. For an additional cost, you can enjoy the hot tub to take your sauna experience to the next level. The activity starts from Haapaniemi, a 20 minute drive from Iisalmi, where you can arrive with your own transport. We can also arrange transportation both ways upon request.
Meet your Haapaniemi host and learn to fish like a local!
