Discover Saimaa operates from Imatra in the southern Saimaa region. Discover Saimaa is a 100% Finnish company.

Discover Saimaa organises excursions and events and provides services. We organise nature tours, cycling trips, canoeing trips, cultural cycling trips, etc. In autumn we also organise mushroom and berry picking trips and in winter you can find us in the snow.

Our "office" is located in the nature by the Saimaa lake. Nature is Finland's largest outdoor space, open to us all year round. Nature produces strength and energy, which gives us a sense of well-being and open-mindedness in our own lives.

In nature tourism, we provide a responsible and sustainable tourism service. We act in an environmentally responsible way, aware of the impact of our own activities on the environment. We strive to manage our environmental impact and to spread awareness of it to others.

Dry-suit floating is your chance to experience Saimaa or the River Vuoksi in a whole new way. Dressed in a snug, waterproof suit, you’ll stay warm and dry while floating on the water – no matter how cold it is.

It’s not just an activity; it’s a moment to let go. Imagine lying back, feeling weightless as the water gently carries you, with nothing but the sounds of nature around you. Whether you’re looking to unwind or try something completely different, floating is soothing, fun, and unforgettable.

Try it any time of year and let the magic of the water recharge your mind and body.

From the restored rapids of the Lieviskä, we move on to the Saimaa side of the river, to the magnificent norfolk waters. After the narrow Lieviskänlahti lake section, we land at Reposenniemi, where the host couple will welcome you. On the shore of Lieviskänlahti in Reposenniemi, the host couple will welcome you.
