LakeLand GTE

Outdoor programs all year. In the summer time we offer great fishing experiences, guided canoe safaris, and enjoy sightseeing cruises in the beatifull scenery of the Lakeland. In winter time we float in ice à la "Saimaa on the rocks". Winter fishing and snowshoe safaris are classic favorites too.

We are based in Varkaus, but can also bring most programs to other places in the area.  Fishing is one of the  best activities in Lakeland, and we offer jigging, trolling, spinning, river fishing and many other ways for both amateurs and keen fishermen.  Guided canoe safaris wait for you in Varkaus Osmajoki route where we pass through a small lake of birds. Kolovesi national park is the paradise for  canoe safaris.  Sightseeing cruises have many options, and you may choose between speed on a fast motor boat and silence on an Electric "Eco Cruiser".  Many activities are availble for cruises too, such as waterskiing, accordeon, coffee on camp fire etc.

Everybody should try once in a lifetime the floating  in ice in the winter.  "Saimaa on the rocks" ice floating is the coolest winter exprerience by far, available all winter in Varkaus.  Winter fishing is the best way to get relaxed in the winter. The calm of nature on the ice cannot be described with words, you must feel it yourself. While catching fish is the goal of fishing safari,  the feeling of silence and peace is garanteed on our fishing safaris.   Why not  go to explore the magic of the forest in the winter?  Join us on a snowshow safari and observe the life of animals in winter.

Many outdoor programs are available all year.  Be prepared with proper clothing and the right attitude and let us bring you to adventures!
