Valamo – Peace and Connection for Groups

Are you planning a recreation day for your company, a conference trip for your work community, or a memorable outing for a larger group?

Let's do it together! Valamo Monastery offers a unique environment where peace, culture, and the beauty of nature combine. Let's plan and implement a package that suits your group – whether it's a meeting day, a retreat, or a celebration.

  • How about a guided tour into the monastery's history, quiet contemplation during a church service, a relaxing sauna moment, and a discussion around an evening campfire?

  • Or perhaps a lecture on Orthodox culture and spirituality, or a monk's Q&A session, a well-being day with Trapesa's delicious meals, or a shared moment of silence in the tranquility of nature?

In addition to the program, Restaurant Trapesa's delicious meals are served – traditional flavors and new experiences.

Valamo's meeting facilities offer a peaceful and inspiring environment for corporate meeting days. Combine work and well-being: after a meeting day, the group can enjoy the monastery's culture, nature, and community spirit.

Welcome to Valamo! Contact us – let's plan a memorable day for your group together.
