There are many trails to choose and our guides are professionals finding the best way for you and your skills of riding. The easiest way to the top is a wide cycling path, but most of the time we use purpose made mountain bike trails. During the ride there is good time for enjoying the silence and the beauty of the forest. And taking some photo memories of course. :)

The top of the hill, Tottorakka ski lift station is the place of the best sceneries over the river valley and the endless forests of Arctic Circle. If you are lucky with the timing and weather, the sunset can be truly amazing here! Just remember, you need to be ready to work a little bit to reach the highest peak of the hill. The last part of the trail is quite steep and sometimes a bit challenging when the snow is soft. But the scenery is worth every effort. Promise. Depending of the weather conditions, we stop for 5 to 15 minutes before heading back down the hill and the most fun parts of riding.
