This feels like going camping with a friend. Sleep in the forest the same way the locals do.
This is done in Finnish style, being self-sufficient, carrying everything we need in our backpacks and sleeping in tents. It’s the real deal.
You don’t need prior experience of this style of hiking and camping, and you can borrow all camping gear you need from the organizer, they’re included in the service. The camping gear you can borrow are very lightweight so the backpacks aren’t heavy, but you need to be aware that you have to carry your own stuff.
