Best things to do in Finland in the autumn
Autumn in Finland is a peaceful season of golden forests, fresh air and glowing skies. The vibrant ruska – our word for the colourful turning of the leaves – begins in Lapland in September and spreads south, painting the landscape in rich reds, oranges and yellows. It’s also the start of the Northern Lights season, with crisp evenings offering your first chance to spot them dancing above. Go hiking, forage for berries and mushrooms with a local guide, or simply soak up the stillness of nature at its most stunning.
Plan your autumn holiday
Autumn is all about experiences that nature gives us, like seeing the Northern Lights season begin and tasting all the wonderful delights from the forest. In cities, like Helsinki, you can experience an array of culture activities from world-class museums and design to restaurants.
