Winter cycling

In Finland we have this crazy thing called winter cycling. The beautiful landscapes of Vuokatti and the specially designed winter cycling trails are a fun pastime for both first-timers and seasoned cyclists.

A landscape adventure on two wheels starts in Vuokatti. On the back of a mountain bicycle or a fatbike, you can enjoy the speed while still having time to admire the scenery. In Vuokatti, snowy slopes and hills as well as ice and lake landscapes await cyclists. Hop on a bicycle and let the adventure begin! Because arriving at the trails is easy — and because Vuokatti’s services are just a stone’s throw away — winter cycling provides a fun adventure even for the youngest in the family.

Checklist for winter cyclists

Starting winter cycling is no more difficult than cycling in summer; just hop on a bicycle and put a helmet on! We have a wide range of different bicycles available, which is why it is important to select the right bicycle for the trail. Whether you select a mountain bicycle, a fatbike or an electric bicycle, you should always protect your head with a helmet.

Be sure to dress properly for the cold weather. Wearing several layers of clothing is important, but you should especially focus on keeping your limbs warm. Fingers and toes are the most sensitive to frostbite, so you should invest in proper socks and gloves. Despite the cold, winter cycling is a great pastime. Even the most bitter cold is only a matter of clothing!
