The most versatile downhill biking in Northern Finland – Ruka Bike Park

Ruka Bike Park ends its 2023 season as Bike Park of the Year! Thank you very much, and see you again next summer.

Up with a lift, down by bike. From the cottage to the slopes and on to conquering the fell. Ruka-Kuusamo provides the setting, equipment, and landscape for diverse downhill biking— trails for demanding customers and beginners, adults and kids, with a technical or casual focus.

DH biking, an action-packed exercise in a stunning setting, is also environmentally friendly; a carbon-neutral lift takes you to the top, and down you come by the force of gravity and your own muscle power.

Check that your equipment works. Always wear a helmet. Other protective gear is recommended.
Select your trail and speed according to your skills and conditions. Get to know the locations in advance. Take detours if necessary.
Overtake others on the slope from a sufficient distance. Those coming downhill and from behind always give way.
Stay on the trail, do not change it or create shortcuts.
Only stop in places where you can be easily spotted. If you return to the top, climb up outside of the trail.
Take others and yourself into account!
Using our trails under the influence of alcohol and other intoxicating substances is forbidden.
You always cycle at your own risk.
Everyone has a responsibility to help in case of an accident. Report accidents to staff without delay.
Always follow trail signs and instructions from staff. Staff members have the right to remove the ski pass of a person who fails to comply with the slope rules.
