Backpacking

along the Karhunkierros Hiking Trail

 

Our first backpacking trip of the year! Viti, Siren and I spent three days out in the wild backpacking in Oulanka National Park. The park is one of the largest and most beatiful ones in Finland including wilderness areas along the Oulanka and Kitka rivers. To learn more about Oulanka National Park, click here.

This trip was the first one ever for Siren. Luckily Viti is such a great little hiker and Siren learnt quickly following Viti's example.

Siren saw the first reindeer of her life. She just wanted to say hi ;)

(the reindeer did not...)

 

" Oh boy... What a nice-smelling bird down there..."

A long day out in the woods does good for appetite!
