Academic Scout Guild

The Academic Scout Guild (Akateeminen partiokilta, APK) is a hobby assocation meant for students and staff of all the universities in Turku (University of Turku, Åbo Akademi, Turku University of Applied Sciences, Novia and HUMAK Turku). APK arranges trips, hiking, outings and other interesting activities for it’s members. Even though our name referes to scouting, we are not a scout association and we welcome everybody to our activities.

During the academic year, we strive to organise one day trip per month that is free for our members and doesn’t require any special equipment. In addition, we organise weekend hikes nearby Turku. With us you can also get to try a kayak, climbing and ice swimming, for example. Sometimes, we organise indoor activities, such as board game nights and museum visits, too. We also collaborate with other student scouting clubs in organising events.
