We are going on an unforgettable kayaking adventure in Karelia!

The hike takes place among the skerries – small rocky islets that shield us from the winds of open Ladoga. The harmonious northern landscapes will set you up for a spiritual mood, and the sound of water under the oars will calm even the most shattered nerves.

Uninhabited islands, swimming in Lake Ladoga and conversations with warming mulled wine under the dome of the starry sky are waiting for us.
