About This Adventure

Experience an exhilarating 7km summer biking adventure on hidden local trails! Navigate through scenic singletrack, cross sand dunes, and tackle a thrilling marsh section for stunning views of Ounasjärvi. This unique route promises an unforgettable evening ride, showcasing the beauty of the landscape that only locals know about.

We have a super little c.7km summer route with lots of singletrack sections close to the farm which we often nip out on in the evenings. We start by biking down towards the river, cross the road and then head back across the sand dunes on undulating singletrack towards our winter 12km trail. For those who are willing to brave a short section of marsh which is sometimes bikeable and sometimes results in wet feet, the reward of the views along the shore of Ounasjärvi, high above the dune cliffs is well worth the effort. Come and have a short blast of fun with us on a 'locals-only' trail which you won't find in any guidebook!
