Ykspihlaja's Saunasuunnistus—Bastuorienterings in Swedish—returns on July 25 as part of the Kokkola neighborhood's annual Culture Week. The free event starts at 2 p.m. and invites visitors to move between participating local saunas.
The resident association is still assembling the final sauna list and route instructions. Because several stops may be private or temporary, visitors should check the official event page shortly before attending.
