You can e- mail to Jaakontien ystävät in Finland. More info - www.jaakontie.fi

Send e- mail to Kalle Elonheimo.

If you are on Facebook join a group called Pyhiinvaeltajat. It is in Finnish but you might get some more info/ contacts anyway.

I saw this on Wikipedia. Looks interesting. But I know that @lovingkindness is an ambitious walker. Is it even worth putting your boots on for a measly 140km? The language might be a bigger challenge than the walk itself

@lovingkindness
See also Wikipedia European long- distance trails.
There are trails from the Arctic Sea to the Caspian Sea, the Mediterranian Sea and to the Atlantic Ocean.
Good luck!

Not at all if you speak some English.
