Hello beautiful Autumn🧡🤎💚💛
The Archipelago Trail, Finland
Have you ever heard of the Archipelago Trail in Finland? It’s a magnificent 250-kilometer-long route located in the Turku Archipelago offering beautiful island and sea views and unforgettable experiences. ☀️🚴♂️
From island to island you’ll travel via bridges or by ferries. You can choose the most suitable vehicle for you: Is it a boat, bike, motorbike, car or bus? Or maybe you would like to travel the trail on foot. There are plenty of options and you can also combine these. In addition to the Achipelago Trail there’s also the Small Achipelago Trail, which length is 120 kilometers. Check out the video to find out more and let the Turku Achipelago mesmerize you with its beauty!
