The up to 17 km long skating trail in Punkaharju is a daily maintained network, which is one of the longest in Finland - with the 9 km additional route, it is even the longest!
Â
The network consists of sections of different lengths, allowing even less experienced skaters to enjoy the thrill of skating. We especially recommend the stunning Valkialampi loop in the middle of the ridge. There is a track fee for the skating trails.
Over 20 km of winter hiking trails on the ice! You can proceed by walking or cycling (packed track or skating trail edge) or by skiing (classic and skating style tracks). Set off on an excursion to the Sumpunlahti lean-to or the Haataansaari campfire site.
Â
To the trails from the southern tip of Tuunaansaari holiday village, 900m from the rental shop. The use of winter hiking trails is free.

You can access the ski track directly from the holiday village, which also features an illuminated track. When all tracks are open, the network length is over 30 km.Â
​
The number of ice tracks has increased to approximately 30 km over the last two winters. The highlight of the tracks is the Research Forest loop, along which you can find the Karjalankallio lean-to shelter.
Our ice sauna at the beach is warm every day from November to April!
​
Three saunas guarantee a cozy sauna evening; come for a public session or book for private use.
What is the condition of the routes? Is it possible to skate? After winter arrives, we write updates to our route diary every week, as ice activities are very weather-sensitive business.
We also strive for the impossible, i.e., predicting the future - we estimate winter hobby opportunities for the near future from weather forecasts! To the diary here.
