Why you might love it
- 01
The easiest way into rowing we have found: join a church-boat crew with friends, no rowing background needed.
Who this suits
Groups of friends, families and colleagues; single rowers and kayakers on longer routes.
Getting ready
Preparation
Finland's biggest rowing festival on Lake Saimaa's waterways around Sulkava, where crews of friends row traditional 14-oar church boats on routes from a 15 km experience course to the 60 km 'king's route'.
