M/S Apaja – Cruises

Savutuvan Apaja is located on the shore of Lake Päijänne, the longest and deepest lake in Finland, at the northern tip of a peninsula where four waterways converge. By water, it's only 4km away from Jyväskylä, passing through Äijälänjoki and Lake Jyväsjärvi. This water route was called Jyväsjoki, and accordingly, Jyväskylä was known as the village of Jyväsjoki.

The cruise offers the opportunity to admire stunning landscapes right from the beginning of the journey upon arrival, or to enjoy the atmosphere of the midnight sun on the way from Apaja to the hotel.
