Lonely Planet review for Poet's Way Lake Cruise
The SS Tarjanne, a steam ship, departs from Mustalahti quay. The route, from Tampere to Ruovesi and Virrat, is known as the Poet's Way and is one of the finest lake cruises in Finland. For an additional charge per person, you can sleep in this old boat before or after your trip, and get free day-use of the cabin. Bicycles can be taken on board for a small fee. You can book a day-trip to Virrat or Ruovesi, with one of the legs made by bus.
