Ruka Bike Park season starts in 7th of June 2025
Ruka Bike Park, located in Kuusamo, Finland, is the most diverse biking center in the North and the winner of the Bike Park of the Year title in 2024. Several trails of various difficulty levels start from the top and slopes of Ruka, accessible via four different bike lifts. Some trails are easy, beginner-friendly flow trails, while others offer more challenging constructed flow trails and natural technical trails.
Four lifts are available for bikers: the Village-2-Valley gondola, the Village Express chairlift, the Vuosseli T-bar, and the Family Park magic carpet.
