In the summer time we travel by hiking, paddling, paddle boarding, biking, kick boarding, abseiling and climbing.

As a speciality on our watertours you can try out sesto-paddling based on the old log floating tradition or learn to ski on floating skis.  For lake paddling and longer river trips for groups we offer our big canoe C6 Teno 2000.  It holds 6-8 persons.

Teamfun in the Middle of the Town

After a meeting or a busy workday it is good to relax a little, improve the group spirit, free creativity and gather up happy feelings. Our little competitions are possible to do almost everywhere. Even in the middle of Tampere city, easily and smoothly! After the activities you can continue the evening with a shared (sauna and ) dinner. We will make the reservations for you.

The program has been built by the same way as city orienteering. Your group will be split into teams before beginning and then you will have different kinds of tasks. Activities demand physical skills (big canoes, kickboards and wooden legs), knowledge (Tampere question contest, map puzzle), co-operation skills (string geometry) and braveness to take risks (Killi, the original gambling game of Tampere). The map of the team will be filled in every control point. In the end of the game everybody will come together, results will be announced and every participant gets a surprise prize.
