Midsummer at a National Park

Hey! It's Blue :)

Midsummer is this summer festival that is celebrated is Finland, Sweden and in Baltic countries. It is a celebration on light and well, midsummer. I celebrated midsummer with my group of friends in Kouvola, witch is a smaller town in more of a central part of Finland. There we stayed in a cottage over the weekend.



On Saturday (24th of June) we went on a hike to the Repovesi National Park. We had so much fun! The park was amazing. In the first part of the trail that we hiked, there was a suspension bridge. The bridge was some what 10m above the water. If you want to hike a trail, you always have to cross it.


After crossing the bridge we hiked for a while and faced a big pair of wooden stairs that we had to climb. Some of our friends ran the stairs but the most of us just walked. The stairs end on a big cliff, that is 50m high and you can see 15km of forest from the top. It was a nice warm day so we sat at the top for a while and continued our journey. 



Then we climbed down and continued our path. The trail that we hiked was 5km long in total. I made a little recap video that is now up in youtube! You can go check that out. I will put it in the end of this post. 


I hope everyone were safe and responsible while celebrating our midsummer festival! Be kind to one another and love the people that are close to you! 

Love,

Blue
