Day 52 | Tammela - Helsinki | 132 KM | 657 HM

 

The final stage in Finland was on the agenda. The wind was so strong again this morning that I wore the softshell jacket over the fibre fur at breakfast. Same as yesterday. Three layers. The last layer would be just the windbreaker over it. The bottom layer is a merino vest. Without movement I get cold relatively quickly. The circulation is then on the back burner with a pulse of around 60 or below.

 

At the beginning we drove between two lakes and again a lot of up and down and curves. It was always nice to look through the trees at the lake.

 

Then there was something hanging down on the road. For trucks? A little later the small bridge. All right - a final warning as a passage restriction for trucks.

 

Sometimes the weather is already autumnal. Windy, cool, sunny and mushrooms in the forest.

 

Then Helsinki gets closer and the roads get wider again.

 

The route from BRouter through the city to the campsite was very smooth. We rolled through big and small roads totally easy.

 

The stretch led through the park past an upscale residential area.

 

After lunch, we went to the beach. Directly in front of the beach is a large road that leads past an upscale residential area.

 

After dinner, we took another walk to the beach. There is a large beach sauna directly in front of it.
