Mountain Biking
The Ylläs mountain bike trails have a range of difficulty levels. You can enjoy some of the finest mountain biking experiences available, by conquering the Kukastunturi fell. Surrounded by Finnish taiga, this fell offers fast trails and stunning scenery. The long-awaited Ylläs-Levi mountain bike trail, which runs through the Pallas-Ylläs National Park, was opened in the summer of 2015. It has been possible to drive in certain parts of the Pallas-Ylläs National Park since June 2017, and several other cycling routes and destinations are located nearby.Ylläs’s mountain bike trail map provides information on mountain bike routes and their difficulty levels; these maps are sold by local firms, and by Tourist Information at the Yllästunturi Visitor Centre Kellokas, in the summer and autumn.
