Activities
Adventures all year round! Not only can you take individual hiking trips in the summer, but you can also take part in a range of guided tours and other activities on Hossa’s marked routes and trails. Or, how about canoeing at sunset on the Julma-Ölkky lake or mountain biking with a guide along the trails of Hossa? Also, bear-watching tours allow you to observe the king of the forest from the safety of a cabin with a guide’s assistance.

Dozens of kilometres of winter cycling trails and maintained ski tracks as well as endless stretches of virgin snow guarantee great outdoor activities from December to April when the spring sun glimmers on the snowy landscape.
