    Tropiclandia

    Start your walk at Tropiclandia. Even if you do not go into the spa, the outdoor area offers a pleasant, quiet space to stretch your legs and enjoy the island atmosphere just outside the city centre.

    Seglis

    Walk three minutes to Seglis for lunch. This seafood restaurant sits in the club house of the Wasa Segelförening sailing society. The terrace provides a great view over the bay, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed meal.

    Zip Adventure Park

    Head back toward the mainland to Zip Adventure Park. Spend some time on the bungee trampoline or try archery wars. It is a fun way to burn off the lunch calories while enjoying the active side of Vaasa.

Local tip

Seglis is only open during summers, so check ahead if you are visiting outside that season. Tropiclandia and Zip Adventure Park are close enough to walk between, but allow extra time if the weather is windy.

Check before you go

  • Seglis operates seasonally. Verify opening dates if you are not visiting in summer.
  • The walk between Tropiclandia and Seglis is short, but the wind on Vaskiluoto can be brisk.
