Hi guys! I really want to relax and I've been always dreaming about being alone somewhere with absolutely noone around me. I think there must be a place in some finnish forest where I am completly alone, right? Does anyone have any secret tips?

Depends a lot on where you live, how far you're prepared to go and what your means of travel are (metro, train/bus, car?).

Suomi perkele! Land of forest and lakes.

Move to North. No one can hear you scream.

Visit your local tourist info office. You'll get tons of useful info.

Thanks for your answers guys. I thought of going there by car and walking the last 3 hours, haha

It's just something I've wanted to do for years already, and in Switzerland that's impossible. Thanks for pointing out that there are more uch places in the north!

Finland is the most sparsely populated country in the European Union. In addition it's a right to walk in any forest. These combined make your task trivial.

Look at this map:

The more animals you can find, the less chance to meet someone

Yeah, but whatever you do, stay on the pathways!

There are plenty of stories of dumbarses who go up north and want to go in the forest. They think it is nothing. Don't stay on the trails and disappear. Sometimes found, sometimes never...... Eaten by the billions of mozzies, or a zombie moose, I suspect, not.
