This activity begins at Nallikari Holiday Village. In the beginning we will adjust the sliding snowshoes to fit everyone’s footwear, set the walking poles to correct height and demonstrate how the equipment works. Then we’ll head out on a route that takes us over the frozen sea and to the beautiful wintery wooded areas of Hietasaari.
Sliding snowshoe trekking provides an active way to experience the frozen sea and some of the most beautiful scenery in the area. It doesn’t require previous experience and as the altitudes differs very little in Oulu, practically the whole trip takes place on the sea level. The activity is suited for anyone with a basic fitness.
