Sunrise safari by boat to Linnansaari National Park. On this excursion we’ll take you to the best locations in Linnansaari to experience this unique lakeland archipelago.
On our early bird tours you will experience the amazing landscapes and wildlife Saimaa lake has to offer. The tour starts from Oravi harbour at sunrise and a professional wilderness guide takes you by boat to the best locations in the national park.
The National Park of Linnansaari consists of hundreds of uninhabited islands and islets. It is a home for the worlds endangered seal the Saimaa Ringed Seal, Ospreys, range of water and forest birds, beavers as well as for several mammals.
The morning tour starts around 4-6am so that we are able to see the nature waking up. In the morning the animals are more active, the sunlight is amazing and after a chilly night we can sometimes experience a magical mist over the lake.
During the trip we’ll enjoy a light breakfast incl. coffee/tee, drink, salty snack.
Boat is equipped with life jackets, rain gear and first aid kit.
