Autumn activities in Bomba

Bomba's colourful autumn is enchanting. The fells glow in shades of yellow, orange and reddish-brown, showcasing their best, as autumn colours paint the underbrush, flowers and leaves. The forests and fells are particularly beautiful on sunny autumn days, when sunlight highlights the autumn colours. The autumn colour season begins in Bomba in mid-September and continues until the end of October.

Lake Pielinen exudes the serene autumn atmosphere, as nature prepares to rest. The surface of the lake reflects the glowing colours of the shores and the bright colours of the sky. Occasionally, the wilderness lake resembles the sea, with large waves rising to the surface. Autumn is an excellent time for fishing, as the schools of pikeperch in Lake Pielinen are active.

Campfires crackle at the nature trail rest spots, and the mind is at peace in the dense pine forests. Blueberries, lingonberries, funnel chanterelles and porcini mushrooms await picking. Moose, bears and deer prepare for winter and birds gather for their migratory journeys.

The air is fresh to breathe and pleasantly cool even for longer excursions. In Bomba you can enjoy the relaxing tranquility of nature! You can admire the autumn colours hiking in the fells, cycling along forest trails or paddling on Lake Pielinen.

Autumn Adventures

Take an e-fatbike to Bomba's diverse trails. The varied fell landscape offers just the right amount of challenge for all levels of activity. Or hike to the stunning viewpoints in the Bomba area to admire the natural art glowing in different shades of yellow and red. Climb the Tower of Hope, cycle to the cliffs of Ellu.

Go fishing on Lake Pielinen or paddle along the shores of the lake while admiring the magnificent autumn colours. A dip in the cool waters of the autumn lake is also an experience. These are the waters where one Finnish national epic character, the water goddess, loved to plunge.

Interested in traditional village culture? How about a guided Coopop tour along the coastal route to the idyllic village of Puu-Nurmes? Complete with a picnic by the campfire or lunch in the village restaurant.
