DISCOVER TAHKO BY CANOE

Enjoy the peaceful serenity of paddling as you watch the slopes of the mountains reflected on the water.

You can easily rent the equipment you need and there are also several wonderful resting places in the Tahko archipelagos to enjoy along your journey.

Many of our visitors use canoes to reach nearby Kammonluoto, where the summer day turns into an evening by the campfire, swimming and admiring the stunning sunsets.

On the way from the centre of Tahko to Kammonluoto, visit historic Aholansaari, or – if you wish to go a little further – the little island called Nimetön ( Nimetön means nameless ) is always worth a visit.

If you’re interested in longer trips, try the route between Kuopio and Tahko with its stunning scenery and peacefulness.
