“I was ice climbing a couple of days ago. It was an amazingly cool experience, had so much fun!! I would definitely recommend it, if you are into outdoor activities. Also my guide, Kai (if I am correct) was a really nice and funny guy, and of course a very good instructor. I felt really safe!!”
Ride an electric fatbike through Pyhä-Luosto National Park with a guide, snow-ready tires, warm gear, and small-group personal service.
“We went on about a three-hour adventure ride through quite challenging terrain, but thanks to Artturi’s clear and helpful instructions, even first-timers were able to get the most out of the bikes. The rocky and demanding “Soutajan” trail to the campfire spot went smoothly with the quality bikes provided. The service deserves extra points — both the rental and return process worked perfectly. Thank you, Artturi, for creating such a great experience for our family!”
