Cruise Meetup in Jyväskylä - Finland

I've been on a cruise as an extra activity during a meeting but I've never been to a cruise that was also a meeting. That's what Heidi and a few other Finnish postcrossers did last month.

In the Jyväskylä region, the wonderfully lush nature surrounding the bodies of water is always close by. The largest of the lakes in the Jyväskylä region is Päijänne, which is also the longest lake in Finland. You can boat along the canal routes in the Päijänne all the way up to Pielavesi in the north and to Lahti in the south. On Lake Päijänne, you can also comfortably reach Jyväsjärvi and Jyväskylä harbour, known as the Lutakko harbour, along the Äijälänsalmi Strait. in: https://visitjyvaskyla.fi
