Find a quiet spot on the grass at Tokoinranta park facing the water. The park is north-west of Hakaniemi, offering an open view of the bay. It is early July, so the light is already bright, but the atmosphere is still calm. Watch the sun rise toward the NW.

Walk four minutes to Sinisen huvilan kahvila. The café opens at 10:00, which is shortly after the sunrise moment. Grab a coffee and sit at the outdoor terrace to enjoy the fantastic views over the Töölönlahti bay while the morning light settles.

End your morning with a short twelve-minute walk up to Bear park. Located on the hill next to Kallio church, this cozy park is one of Kallio's symbols. Sit near the bear statue to rest and take in the elevated view of the neighborhood you just walked through.
Local tip
The sunrise in July is late, so you have time to enjoy a relaxed breakfast. Check the opening hours of Sinisen huvilan kahvila to ensure you arrive after 10:00.
