Ruka Playground

Ruka Playground opens in early April and is open for everyone every day until the end of season. Ruka Playground areas and obstacles will be regularly shaped to allow skiers and snowboarders to enjoy well-maintained spots throughout the spring. A hot tip for those hungry for events: Ruka Spring Break and new event Epikses conveniently coincide with the Playground period.

Obstacles are designed to be suitable for the full send as well as mellow cruising and practicing your tricks. If you like to ride park or other fun features made of snow, Ruka Playground is for you.
