Holidays in Panka

If that Chrissie money you got from Mum and Dad is burning a hole in your wallet, why not spend it on a holiday to Panka? We swear — it'll be the gift that keeps on giving!

It's located 350 kilometres to the north of Helsinki, the country's capital.

Put aside some time for checking out Mother Nature's handiwork at Korkeakoski. This charming natural sight is located just 8 kilometres away from Panka.

If your journey coincides with a satisfying dump of snow, you'll see many powder fiends packing up their cars for some icy thrills and spills at Tahko Ski Resort.

Tuovilanlahti is 9 kilometres to the northeast and worth visiting. Want more ideas? Tölvä, 20 kilometres to the east of Panka, should be your second stop.

Roughly 50 kilometres to the southeast, Kuopio is a place chock-full with things to do. The University of Kuopio, Kuopio Cathedral and Puijo Tower are all nearby. That said, Rauhalahti Smoke Sauna and Valkeisenlampi may be more your thing.

There's a whole new world of unique flavours waiting to meet your taste buds in Kuopio. With plenty of scrumptious things to feast on, all you need to take along is your appetite — and perhaps your stretchiest trousers.

Are you partial to berries? What about beef chicken? Whether you're into them or not, they are two essential ingredients commonly used in the cooking here.

There's always a local meal or two you absolutely have to try, and during your time in Panka, hernekeitto (pea soup) is definitely one of them. Rosolli (beetroot salad) is another regional specialty that's an essential experience for food fans.

Calories don't count when you're travelling, right? So it's a fantastic excuse to satisfy your sugar cravings with some mustikkapiirakka (blueberry pie)riisipuuro (rice pudding), a beloved dessert.

To beer or not to beer? Of course, the answer is always beer. While you're in this neck of the woods, Olvi is the one you want.

Searching for something with a bigger kick? You have to try Salmiakki Koskenkorva. Ask the barkeeper if it's nice in any mixed drinks or cocktails. Failing that, hoist your shot glass and drink it up straight!

Experienced travellers usually make an effort to learn a couple of words in the local tongue. They've come to realise that being able to interact with the locals isn't just convenient, it's great fun too! 'Hauska tavata' can be very useful. It's how you say 'pleased to meet you'. Maybe you'll find 'Mistä olet kotoisin?' easier to say? It means 'where are you from?'.

Celebrated throughout the whole country, Independence Day is held on the 6th of December. If you find yourself here at this time, it'll be hard not to get swept up in the festivities!

The good news is that Panka will stay just where it is, so this "Nähdään" has no need to be your last!

Located 340 kilometres to the south is Vantaa Airport (HEL), the nearest terminal. Ensure you have enough time to find it.

"Even better than the pictures suggest. The cottage is very remote but easy to find with a decent sat nav. Even though we stayed during a cold spell in June, the cottage is perfectly comfortable. The lake is beautiful to look at but we weren't able to get on it due to the weather. What is really nice ..."
