Finland is perhaps most famous for its beautiful and complex system of lakes and waterways.
Water is everywhere, it seems, leaving many opportunities to set out and explore.
In fact, more than 10 percent of Finland is covered by water. Lake Paijanne, north
of Helsinki, is Finland's longest lake; Lake Saimaa is its largest. But there are
literally thousands of other lakes, islands, rivers and streams that help make all
of Finland a land of remarkable beauty year-round.
Visitors here may choose to canoe the Lakeland countryside of the Kainuu province,
or shoot the rapids near Kuusamo. Or they may choose to avoid the water altogether
in favor of golfing, skiing and tennis.
Fishing, hunting, hiking and snowmobiling are also popular pursuits, depending on
the weather, as well as the pursuit of ultimate relaxation, provided by a world-renowned
spa.
