Korsholm is the number one destination for wellness tourists
Clean nature, calm, healthy food, treating yourself and allowing yourself to enjoy the small things is in all its simplicity the key to wellbeing. Korsholm offers excellent conditions for wellness tourism. The locals get energy from the sea, nature and other natural resources all year long and long-distance visitors are wise to reserve enough time to enjoy this without haste.

For most people, Korsholm is the sea and the nature around it. Amazing outdoors attraction and the Unesco world heritage are often captured on social media. Svedjehamn, Sommarösund and other attractions are like daily changing reality TV because there is always something new for senses to enjoy. Try climbing up the Saltkaret tower on a hot summer day and then again when the pouring rain is falling down your neck from the hood of your rain jacket on another day. They are two completely different experiences, but which one is better?
Svedjehamn Unescon Maailmanperintöalueella on loistava paikka koko perheen retkeilyyn ja evästelyyn.
Näyttävä, tummaksi…

Try climbing up the Saltkaret tower on a hot summer day and then again when the pouring rain is falling down your neck from the hood of your rain jacket on another day. They are two completely different experiences, but which one is better?
The diversity of the town that spreads around Vaasa in many directions might get ignored if you are only focusing in the world heritage area in Replot. In many places around the town, you can’t see the sea even using binoculars. Söderfjärden, Sulva, Tuovila, Sepänkylä, Koivulahti and Karperö are all located in mainland and offer many of those small, wellbeing-increasing experiences.
Here are some tips:
1.Söderfjärden. Get to know the lowland formed by a meteorite for 520 million years ago. Visit the Meteoria and climb the tower there. Go back in the autumn and observe the cranes resting there on their way to migrate over the winter.

2.Sulva. The attractions of the lovely village are the adorable wooden church and the Stundars outdoors museum. Finne farm and Ines market sell fresh vegetables and other groceries. In Bella Sandvik, you can get a relaxing pedicure or a hot stone massage.

3.In the village of Tuovila, you can adore the second oldest museum bridges. The rock bridge, completed in 1781, crosses over Laihia river that locals call the Tuovila river. Counting the bricks of the bridge and following the stream of the river are enough mindfulness for one day.
4. For families with children, a trip around all the several playgrounds in Koivulahti and the Karperö beach, where instead of the sea, you can swim in a lake. The track next to the Botnia hall offers a challenge to even the fittest, especially if you make it a race between the family.
5.You are what you eat; wellbeing and food can’t be separated. Korsholm offers great dining opportunities and restaurants, whose owners have carefully chosen their way of making their dreams a reality. The reputations of the Arken perch files and the Kalle’s Inn salmon have reached way abroad the boarders of the region. The Viking Partiies of the Sulva kestikievari are a classic. In Björko Handel, you can have a coffee and pick up something local to take for home. The Kvarken Brewery brews local beer. If you make a short turn to Vaasa’s side in Sulva, you will end up in the Nelimarkka winery in Sundom; turns out it is not impossible to grow grapevines in Finland!
No matter whether you are interesting in highway riding, mountain biking or just getting from one place to another, riding a bike is the way to go if you are interested in wellbeing. However, if you are travelling with family and in a hurry, it is easy to get around in a car too. The key is to leave enough time for all the different experiences. Stop the car every time you spot something interesting from the car window!
Boating is a topic of its own, because an adventure around the archipelago is an experience worth to spend a separate trip on! Time loses its meaning in the islands Valsörarna and Ritgrund and the zen moment is easier to achieve than anywhere else.
