Join us for walking tours of the Aalto University campus and surroundings. These tours invite students and staff to explore the connection of nature and culture on our campus.
Regular Weekly Walk: Join us every Thursday, starting from the Oak in front of the Väre building at 13:00, for a refreshing walk through familiar and new paths. It's a great way to connect with nature and maintain a consistent walking routine. To join a regular Thursday walk, appear at the Oak - there is no registration. The Thursday walks are self-guided and self-organised, with the A! Walk staff joining whenever they can.
Additional Walks with Special Themes and Destinations: Explore unique routes and special themes in these extra walks. Each offers a distinctive journey and destination for those looking to discover something new. You can register for the Theme Walks through the link under each topic.
Stay tuned and join us to explore the campus on foot.
