With sandy beaches, hillside parks & mediaeval towers so close to the city centre it’s easy to understand why you need a second day in Tampere. With that in mind I hired an electric scooter & headed towards the wonderful areas of Pyynikki & Pispala hoping to see another side of the city. It was a stunning winter’s day with bright blue skies and little wind.

My day started on a rocky outcrop close to Pyynikin Uimaranta - a beautiful beach overlooking the islands south of Tampere. From there I hired a Voi Electric Scooter and headed into the Pyynikki Nature Reserve which is situated on Pyynikki Esker - one of the highest and longest ridges in the world. The area was so relaxing and peaceful with well kept trails and lots of families out enjoying the winter’s sun.

After an exhausting climb to the top of the ridge I stopped for a well deserved rest at the Observation Tower which is where I found a small coffee shop serving hot drinks and doughnuts. I couldn’t resist the smell so popped inside for a well earned snack  - just what I needed. Next I climbed the observation tower and caught a spectacular view across the ridge and over the city - definitely a place that has my support for the best view in Tampere!

My next stop was the neighbourhood of Pispala with its old wooden houses and magnificent views either side of the ridge. A little further along I came across an old Shot Tower that was once used in the production of shot balls. They're not made this way any more so the tower is now closed and stands as a reminder of the area's industrial past. A thoroughly enjoyable day in Tampere and one that convinced me that you need two days in the city to see it properly.
