The best way to reach the event site is by taking public transport from Helsinki.  \n\n\n\nHow to get to Helsinki:  \n\n\n\nBy plane: When arriving by plane\, the closest airport to the event venue is Helsinki-Vantaa airport. There are direct trains and buses from the airport to Helsinki city centre\, where you find connecting journeys to the event venue. Find the trains\, buses and tickets through the HSL-app.  \n\n\n\nBy ferry: There are ferries going to Helsinki from Tallinn and Stockholm. You can find the timetables and tickets from here https://laivaliput.fi/  \n\n\n\n+ If you spend time and move around in Helsinki\, we advise you to download the HSL-app\, where you can plan your journeys and buy tickets for all public transportation (trains\, busses\, trams\, metro).  \n\n\n\nHow to get from Helsinki to the event venue:  \n\n\n\n\nFirst taking a bus from Helsinki bus station Kamppi to Lohja bus station (the journey is around 1h 10min) \n\n\n\nFrom Lohja bus station you can take the bus number 40 (Lohja-Härjänvatsa) to the stop ‘Suomusjärven th’ (the journey is around 35min). \n\n\n\nFrom the bus stop there is a 2km walk to the Pelli camping centre (Härjänvatsantie 210\, 09120 Karjalohja)\n\n\n\n\nYou can find the timetables and tickets for the busses here: https://www.matkahuolto.fi/ \n\n\n\n(We are currently working on a possible shared transportation from Lohja to the event venue.

Looking forward to seeing you in November <3  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nYour questions answered\n\n\n\nQ: How do I know if this is something for me?\nA: If you like meeting people and/or viewing geography from different stances and/or like travelling\, then this is definitely something for you! Every EGEA experience is different\, some people like certain aspects more than others and that’s totally okay\, because an EGEA event (like this one) has a lot of aspects to offer! \n\n\n\n\nQ: My English is not that good\, will I be able to fit in?\nA: The key to learning a language is practicing\, and most EGEAns don’t have English as a mother tongue\, so everybody will make an effort to understand you and be patient. Besides\, we’re sure your English is better than you think!! \n\n\n\n\nQ: I have some information I need the orgateam to know\, how do I tell them?\nA: Some time after you register for the event\, we will sent a participant form for more information about you (eg. allergies\, if you want to sleep in a same-gender room\, …) so you can let us know there. We will also make a Whatsapp chat for everybody. Otherwise feel free to contact us through Instagram: @nw26_egea or email: newbieweekend.2026@egea.eu
