The activities are suitable for individual participants, groups of friends, and even larger groups. Customized programs can be designed for corporate team-building and wellness days, as well as for other group events.
Guided Kayaking Tours at Strömfors Ironworks
Join a guide to explore the varied river landscapes of the westernmost branch of the Kymijoki River. On these canoeing trips, which start at the Strömfors Ironworks, you’ll paddle through calm waters and safely enjoy nature under the guidance of a guide.
Trips are organized using canoes, kayaks, and SUP boards. The routes are suitable for paddlers of all skill levels, and the specific itinerary is tailored to the group’s experience, preferences, and weather conditions.
Musta Tuntuulla has the capacity to organize paddling experiences for larger groups as well. Whether it’s a corporate team-building day, a club outing, or an adventure with a group of friends, the paddling trip can be organized either independently or with a guide. The content and details of the trip are planned based on the group’s size, experience, and preferences.
The starting point for kayaking trips is the dock at the Verkhuus outdoor equipment rental shop, located at Ruukintie 11 B.
Outdoor Equipment Rental – Explore Nature at Your Own Pace
Would you like to head out onto the water on your own and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Kymijoki River? Musta Tuntuu offers canoe rentals at the Strömfors Ironworks for individual hikers, families, groups of friends, and even larger groups.
Rent a kayak, canoe, or SUP board and set out to explore the area’s stunning river scenery at your own pace. There’s plenty of equipment available even for larger groups planning a day of paddling together.
Outdoor equipment rentals are also ideal for corporate team-building events and group nature outings.

Sound Bowl Relaxation Sessions
During a singing bowl relaxation session, you pause for a moment to listen to the gentle sounds and vibrations of the singing bowls. This peaceful moment of relaxation provides a counterbalance to the hustle and bustle of daily life and is suitable for both individuals and groups. Singing bowl sessions are also available as individual, couples, or small-group treatments.
At the Strömfors Ironworks, singing bowl relaxation sessions are held at the Workshop. From spring through fall, depending on weather conditions, these sessions may also take place outdoors—for example, in a park, garden, forest, or rocky landscape.
A singing bowl relaxation session is a great addition to a day of recreation, a group outing with friends, or a peaceful wellness day.
Forest Outings and Hikes
On guided tours with Musta Tuntuun, you’ll get to explore the nearby forests, river landscapes, and national park nature. The content and length of the tours vary from short nature walks to longer hikes.
During the winter season, the program also includes snowshoe hikes. On these hikes, participants can safely explore winter nature under the guidance of a guide, and the program can be combined with, for example, a snack break or food prepared over a campfire.
Wild Herb Tours and Natural Cosmetics
On wild herb excursions, participants learn to identify and gather Finnish wild herbs and become familiar with how to prepare and use them.
In natural cosmetics workshops, wild herbs are used to make products such as creams, bath products, and other natural items. The workshops offer activities, opportunities to learn new things, and a chance to spend time together surrounded by natural ingredients.
Activities for Groups and Workplace Wellness Days
Musta Tuntuun’s services can be used to create a varied recreational or workplace wellness day for companies and groups. The program can include, for example:
- guided kayaking tour
- a trip to the woods or a hike
- snowshoe hike
- sound bowl relaxation
- wild herb tour or workshop
- picnic snacks or campfire meals
Activities can be carried out individually or combined into a package of several programs. The group’s day is planned based on the number of participants, the time of year, and their preferences.
