Snowmobiling in Suomussalmi

What better way to explore the scenic landscape of Suomussalmi than with an exhilarating snowmobile tour through the heart of nature? Suomussalmi boasts one of the country’s most diverse and well-maintained snowmobile trail networks.

 

The trails

Beware of weak ice!
Ice conditions have deteriorated in all water areas. Extreme caution should be exercised when going onto the ice! Some snowmobile routes have already been closed, and the most up-to-date information on snowmobile trail conditions in Suomussalmi can be found in the Fluent service. Everyone traveling on the ice, whether by snowmobile or otherwise, should be very careful!

 

Suomussalmi’s snowmobile routes span primarily state-owned land, forming a network of approximately 550 km of trails. Of these, 350-450 km are mechanically maintained, depending on the weather conditions. Routes extend to all neighbouring municipalities, with various paths to explore. For instance, you can ride to Hossa via Lake Kiantajärvi or choose either the western or eastern trails around the lake, each offering distinct and memorable terrain.
