Welcome to another breathtaking video on Finland Adventure! In this 8-minute time-lapse, you will witness the stunning beauty of Lake Saimaa, located in the heart of Lappeenranta, South Karelia. This video captures two hours of real-time footage condensed into an 8-minute time-lapse, filmed on the beautiful afternoon of September 5th. The weather was perfect, with clear sunny skies and a pleasant temperature of 25°C, ideal for enjoying nature and soaking in the peaceful surroundings.
Lake Saimaa is Finland's largest lake and the fourth largest in Europe, covering an area of 4,400 square kilometers. Known for its crystal-clear waters, scattered islands, and intricate shorelines, Saimaa offers endless opportunities for boating, fishing, and water activities. The lake is also home to the rare Saimaa ringed seal, one of the world’s most endangered seal species. Lappeenranta, nestled on the southern shores of this majestic lake, provides easy access to the pristine waters, making it a perfect spot for nature lovers.
The city of Lappeenranta, located in South Karelia, is known for its unique natural beauty. With lush green forests, sparkling lakes, and scenic landscapes, Lappeenranta offers an almost otherworldly charm. The town is often compared to a scene out of a fairytale with its serene environment and picturesque views. Lappeenranta is also celebrated for its commitment to environmental sustainability and has earned the title of "Climate Capital of Finland," winning awards for being one of the cleanest cities in the country.
In the time-lapse, shot around 5 PM in 4K resolution, you'll notice gentle cloud movements in the sky, reflecting the calm atmosphere of the day. Despite the time-lapse effect, the lack of wind kept the movements soft and smooth, adding to the peaceful vibe of the video. Along the shoreline, you can also see boats lined up, ready for the next adventure. Boating is a popular activity in Lappeenranta, and the easy access to the lake allows both locals and visitors to enjoy fishing, sailing, and exploring the countless islands scattered across Lake Saimaa.
As a resident of Lappeenranta for two years while studying at Lappeenranta University of Technology, I’ve had the privilege of living by the lakeside and experiencing the beauty of Saimaa daily. The lake, the city, and its friendly people have given me many cherished memories and lifelong friendships. In this video, you'll also spot kayaks gliding along the water, with a kayak station nearby where you can borrow one and paddle your way through the lake, either towards the city center or for a peaceful return journey.
Lappeenranta’s connection to nature is unparalleled, and this video showcases just a glimpse of the magic this city and its surroundings hold. Whether you’re enjoying a calm day by the lake, going for a boat ride, or just chilling with nature, there’s something truly special about this piece of heaven. If you love nature, lakes, and peaceful moments, this time-lapse is for you!
