The Doggy Route to Happiness in Helsinki

Come follow the doggy route to happiness!

Sightseeing routes are usually designed for people. But during the biggest dog event of the year (World Dog Show 2025 in Helsinki), we’re inviting the dogs of Helsinki on their very own route around the Rajasaari area.

From August 8th to 9th, you and your furry friend are invited to explore the doggy route to happiness. It’s a special trail where familiar places are reimagined with your dog’s happiness in mind. Route highlights include Cafe Dogatta, The Stickelius Monument, and the dog island Rajasaari.

Strike a pawse! On Saturday 9th, photographer Fanny Haga will be on site at Cafe Dogatta (Regatta) from 10 AM to 2 PM to capture your dog on its happiest walk.

What? The happiest doggy walk. When? From August 8th to 9th. Where? From Café Regatta to Rajasaari dog island.
