Valamo – peace and connection for groups

Are you planning a day of relaxation for your company, a meeting trip for your work community or a memorable trip for a larger group?

Let's do it together! Valamo Monastery offers a unique environment where peace, culture and natural beauty combine. We will plan and implement a package that is just right for your group – whether it is a meeting day, retreat or celebration.

How would a guided tour of the monastery's history, a quiet time in church service, a relaxing sauna moment and a conversation around an evening campfire sound like?
Or perhaps a lecture on Orthodox culture and spirituality or a monk's question hour, a work well-being day over delicious meals at Trapesa, or a quiet moment together in the peace of nature?

In addition to the program, the table will be set with delicious meals at the Trapesa restaurant – traditional flavors and new experiences.

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

Welcome to Valamo! Get in touch - let's plan a memorable day for your group together.
