The inside track

Stay
Extend your trip and spend a night at the uber-cool St George in Helsinki. This new hotel is right in the heart of the city and has stunning Scandi-chic rooms and an incredible spa.
Hike
If you can’t get enough of the great outdoors, hike around the ice waterfalls in the Korouoma Nature Reserve. They’re sensational. The waterfalls freeze for the winter as they tumble over the sides of a deep gorge.
Eat
For the best meal in Finland, head to Ask in Helsinki. The set menu of modern Finnish food features ingredients that are either foraged or come from bio-dynamic farms. It’s intimate, with only 22 covers.
