Wander a free open-air park of major international sculpture set in birch woodland, timed for the soft northern evening light.
What to expect
You follow a network of paths through birch and pine where more than thirty large-scale sculptures sit among the trees, many by internationally significant artists. Locals treat it as a place to walk rather than a tourist stop, so even in summer it rarely feels crowded. Late afternoon light through the birches is when the setting is most striking.
Good to know
About a 10-minute taxi from the port; no booking needed. Pick up a park map online beforehand as signage on-site is minimal.
