This was a phenomenal experience! The hosts provided a horseback riding tour in the beautiful forest, followed by some sausage and cookies with coffee by an open fire in a very cozy hut. We also then got to experience their lovely sauna, mixed with jumping in the cold lake - a very exciting experience! Overall the hosts were very warm and welcoming, and shared lots of knowledge and experience regarding their horses, home, and lifestyle. The whole experience was very relaxing, yet also adventurous and nice. I would recommend it for families, couples, and even solo travelers!
A magical place with amazing hosts!

Katya and Joni were very welcoming and fantastic hosts! My partner and I did the horseback riding and sauna. Even though it was my first time riding a horse and I was nervous, the horses are very well trained and patient and Katya was very reassuring and instructive! We toured the Finnish forest, which is beautiful in the fall, and got to see some wildlife. During the ride, Katya talked a bit about the history and different facts about the land around us. Afterwards, we had coffee and snacks in a traditional Finnish hut and then went to the sauna. It was a magical experience, very intimate and relaxing! I 100% recommend coming to their homestead if you want to make the most out of your trip.
Loving ride
