Tampere offers excellent opportunities to exercise on your own all year round. There are outdoor routes and nature trails, hiking areas and cycling routes for everyone.
Outdoor gyms are at your disposal all year round, and indoor gyms can be accessed as well. There are several inexpensive gyms in the city, including the gym in Nääshalli.
Everyman's Rights allows you to pick berries and mushrooms almost anywhere, in addition to fishing and ice fishing in the waters.
Autumn and spring are the best times to see the northern lights. Finland is one of the best places on earth to watch them. Auroras Now! is a space weather service that helps find northern lights. These flickering lights can be seen from time to time in the Tampere night sky too.
