The Small Archipelago Trail

The Small Archipelago Trail is a shorter version of the famous Archipelago Trail and is a perfect travel destination for a day or two.

Now it’s time to experience the Finnish archipelago! You don’t even need your own boat. You can travel the Small Archipelago Trail from mid-May until the end of August. By car it takes only one day (if you prefer to stay longer, you’ll find good places for accommodation here) and by bike it’ll take a couple of days. If you follow the fastest route the trip will be around 120 km long.

The Small Archipelago Trail goes through five cities: Turku, Raisio, Naantali, Pargas and Kaarina. But you won’t experience a lot of city life, since 2/3 of the route is on islands. Along the route there is 15 year-round inhabited islands and a few uninhabited ones. The Small Archipelago Trail is a shorter version of the main route The Archipelago Trail.
