Akateeminen partiokilta

Join us on the APK autumn trip on Saturday 16th October 2021! This time we’re going to Ankka–Nautela trail in Lieto. On the trip we get to gaze at the tallest rapid of Aurajoki and get to know the Lieto nature. Note that the walking distance of the route is about 10 kilometers, but the route isn’t too difficult terrain-wise.

We start our trip from the Nautelankoski parking area at 11:15am. We’ll travel there together with the Föli bus 602 that leaves from Puutori station in Turku at 10:19 am. The route ends near the Ankka suburb and we’ll try to make it back to the University bus stop in Turku with the Föli bus 6 leaving the suburb at either 5:20pm or 5:50pm. 

The trip is free for members who have paid their membership fee (you can also join during the trip!), or you can pay just for the trip in which case the participation fee is 5 €. We provide small snacks. Everyone should take with them a bottle of water and other snacks as necessary. Register today with the form at https://forms.office.com/r/xVeDhYrugj?lang=en-GB !

You can check out the route beforehand here (unfortunately only in Finnish): http://www.reitisto.fi/ankka-nautela

If you’re late, notify us via phone at 050 378 0711 so we’ll know to wait for you.

Join us on the APK mushroom-picking trip on Thursday 7th October 2021! Our trip is to Hauninen basin (Haunisten allas) in Raisio. On the trip we’ll try to find some of the most common edible mushrooms in Finland and see how to identify them. The trip is not, however, a complete course for mushroom-picking and everyone is responsible for the mushrooms they pick – because of this we suggest that everyone purchases a mushroom guide book or application that you can use to practice identifying different mushrooms together with the trip guides.

We’ll leave to the trip from the Hauninen basin (Haunisten allas) parking lot at 4pm. You can get there for example using the Föli bus number 300, which leaves the Puutori PT2 stop at 3pm. The final stop of the bus line is Mylly, from which it’s about a half an hour walk to the starting point. We’ll return from the trip 7pm latest to the starting point (parking lot), from which you can walk back to Mylly and take a bus to Turku.

The trip is free. Everyone should take at least a water bottle and other snacks as necessary with them. Additionally we suggest taking with you a basket or plastic bag and a small knife (preferably a mushroom knife, ie. one with a brush in the other end). Additionally we suggest purchasing mushroom guide book or application, which you can learn to use on the trip. Register today with the registration form!
