Finland is one of the few mountain biking destinations where you can ride around the clock during summer. Experiencing the midnight sun on a mountain bike is truly unforgettable—something everyone should try at least once in their lifetime. What makes Finland a unique MTB destination is the endless variety of forests, fells, hills, and bogs, ensuring there’s always a trail to explore, no matter where you are in the country.

In addition to mountain biking trails, numerous bike parks across Finland offer riding opportunities for both beginners and more experienced downhill riders. The idea of downhill biking is similar to skiing in winter: take the lift up, and enjoy the ride down! Just like skiing, downhill biking is a fun activity for all ages.
