In winter, Punkaharju offers one of Finland's longest tour skating routes, up to 26 km long. Ice trails and winter hiking routes make for an unforgettable winter holiday. A well-sized network of ski trails and snowshoe routes is also a wonderful way to enjoy the scenery. You can rent equipment from us, and the shore has a kick sled for the little ones.

At Punkaharju Sauna Beach, daily sauna sessions and ice swimming refresh body and mind. Choose from three different saunas: Harbour, Barrel and Scenic Sauna. The winter swimming season runs from 15 October until the end of April.

Explore Punkaharju Nature Reserve

The nature and trails of the Punkaharju ridge offer plenty to do and experience. Most activities are right next to the holiday village. Tips for the ridge:

Kokonharju Trail has some of Finland's largest trees.

Research Forest offers changing woodland scenery for walking and cycling: Hakin Kierros and Puulajireitti are great routes, with Karjalankallio lean-to shelter along the way.

The illuminated Topelius Trail follows ponds and bays along the ridge and offers beautiful viewpoints.

The Mustaniemi–Kuikonniemi area has a summer café, beaches and Salpa Line sites.

Sumpunlahti is a wonderful destination in every season.

The scenic road through the ridge area has been chosen as the Road of the Century.

EQUIPMENT RENTAL

Our wide selection includes electric gravel bikes and E-Fatbikes. In summer, we rent kayaks and boats; in winter, tour skating equipment and kick sleds. Equipment rental is open daily from 10:00 to 16:00. Returns can be made until the restaurant closes.
