Kajaani offers plenty to see and do all year round for culture vultures and sports enthusiasts alike. Poetry Week and Kajaani Dances are famous events that gather people together year after year, and Vimpelinvaara presents excellent surroundings for all kinds of outdoor activities. Also, if you’d like to try out your hand at fishing, you’ll surely love the beautiful fishing spot of Linnavirta.

When flying to Kajaani, be sure to admire the view from above: seeing Finland from the window of an airplane will help you understand where the nickname “The Land of a Thousand Lakes“ comes from.
