EQUIPMENT RENTAL

Finnish Nature Centre offers rental gear and equipment for all types of outdoor recreation. Proper gear makes outdoor activities comfortable in any weather and the right kind of high-quality equipment is safe. Renting is eco-friendly, and you need not keep the gear unused in storage for long periods of time. This saves storage space and you have always access to fresh equipment that fits you, and is in good condition. Our staff in Haltia will advise you on how to use the gear and helps with choosing the right equipment for each purpose.

Rental equipment can be collected from the Haltia during opening hours all year.

Try before you buy!

Renting allows you to try hiking and see what it feels like, and you can test the products before deciding to buy them. If you choose to purchase the rented product from us after use, the rental cost will be refunded in the purchase price of a new similar product.

E-FATBIKES COMING IN 2021

E-fatbike rental will start in 2021 at the Finnish Nature Centre Haltia and at Nuuksio’s North Gate (Salmi recreational area).

TENTS

Different excursions require different tents, which makes renting an excellent option – you can always choose the shelter that best suits your needs on your next outing. A tunnel tent is lightweight and easy to carry, but if you intend to travel to the destination by car or maybe in a canoe, why not choose a fun Tentsile hammock!

BACKPACKS AND DAY PACKS

A good backpack is essential in making your hike a success. Rent a backpack to test it in action and try out different types of backpacks on different excursions to find the right one for you. When you find the perfect backpack, you can buy it from us – we’ll refund the rental price in the purchase price.

SLEEPING BAGS AND PADS

A right type of high-quality sleeping bag for each trip will help you get a good night’s sleep after spending the day in the great outdoors. Finland’s climate poses special challenges for sleeping outdoors, as it is hot in summer and cold in winter. A rented sleeping bag will meet your specific needs at each time and you need not concern yourself with sleeping bag maintenance or storage.
