Karelia is the soul of Finland. Countless writers, painters, poets and sculptors adopted the 19th century Karelianism movement - the Finnish equivalent of European romanticism. The dream-like landscapes of Koli National Park and her surrounding lakes were a refuge for many, plus, the inspiration of national epics and the backdrop of folk lore. Cycle, hike or ski between friendly village communities of Karelia to be serenaded by songs and the ancient national instrument, the Kantele.
