How to get out Tampere
In the unlikely event that the stress of city life gets to you in Tampere, escape for a day of pampering at the spa in Nokia. A day trip to Nokia is a good idea also if you want to familiarize with the founding place of Nokia corporation and the history behind it, even if the company no longer has any actual offices there.
Tampere is a good base for visiting Finland if you arrive by Ryanair directly to Tampere: it is quite possible to make day trips by train or coach e.g. to the capital Helsinki, to the historic capital Turku or to the town of Hämeenlinna. Both Turku and Hämeenlinna have small medieval castles that can be visited.
For the down-hill skiing enthusiast, there are ski stations in Sappee (Pälkäne, 50 km from Tampere) and Himos (Jämsä, 95 km from Tampere).
