How to get there - Helsinki

Discovering Lappeenranta

Steps: Lappeenranta

From Helsinki, take the bus to Lappeenranta and from there visit Lake Saimaa on one of the many boats open to tourists. The circuit passes through the lock of the Saimaa Canal. If you are lucky, you may see seals, symbols of the Lakes region. Another attraction in Lappeenranta is the fortress built in 1649 and overlooking the city from the heights.

Imatra, a city on the border with Russia

Steps: Imatra

See the Valtion Hotelli, an architectural masterpiece in the Art Nouveau style not to be missed. Other highlights include the Imatrankoski rapids, the nearby park and the Imatran Voima hydroelectric power plant ("Imatra's strength").

Places of interest : RAPIDES KRUUNUNPUISTO (PARC DE LA COURONNE)

Day 3

Sumptuous road to Punkaharju

Forteresse Olavinlinna à Savonlinna

It is accessible through an impressive road: the rock becomes cliff and this moraine ends up leaving only the paved road with a view overlooking the lake on each side.
