The outdoor season card opens up a wide range of opportunities for you to get out and about in the most beautiful nature spots in Southern Finland!
With the Outdoor Season Card you have access to all outdoor equipment at Natura Viva's locations. Most of our sites are in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area, but you can also enjoy outdoor activities in Teijo National Park and Repovesi National Park. You can also take part in guided weekly kayaking trips. You can also get a special price for certain excursions as a season card holder.
Easy booking and support for your activities
As a season pass holder, you can book your equipment independently and our offices don't have to be open to get you outdoors. You can paddle at our paddling sites from 05.00 to 24.00 and book fatbikes between 06.00 and 21.00. Overnight trips are also possible. Season ticket holders have their own Facebook group where you can look for paddling companionship and get tips from other season ticket holders.
This season pass is valid from the time of purchase in August until the end of 2024. The paddling season always ends at the end of September. The Vuosaari Paddling Centre, Matinkylä Paddling Point and Korpilampi can be booked all year round.
