surroundings for paddling. Our professional guides
will assist with kayaks, equipment and programs
for beginners or the more experienced. A trip
could last from a few hours to overnight camping
trips for several days.

Cycling
in Åland
Bicycling around in the Åland archipelago is popular. The distances
are short, the nature varied and the sea is always
present. There are several camping grounds, cottage
houses and B&B around
the island for overnight stays. A recommended
program would be a 2-5 days exploring the islands,
using various free ferries.
