When the nights are
long in Finland (and they can be very, very long) there's much more to
do than huddle inside with a vodka or two. You can ski across vast frozen
lakes or relax in a sauna, beating yourself ever so gently with a fragrant
branch of birch leaves to loosen the travel grime. During the months of
the midnight sun, coastal regions, including the Turku archipelago and
?land Islands, are a sailing and fishing paradise. Inland, the largest
unspoilt wilderness in Europe attracts thousands of trekkers every year.
In the south the capital
Helsinki has over 30 art galleries and museums, while in the north Santa
Claus kicks back 364 days a year. Where else in the world can you take
a reindeer tour or an icebreaker cruise then hit the green for some midnight
golf?
