Whether you’re an avid trekker or just someone who loves spending time in the great outdoors, Finland’s legendary Karhunkierros Hiking Route must be on your list of places to see in Finland. Why? This 82 km long trail also known as The Bear’s Ring is famous for its beauty and majesty. The trail passes through Oulanka National Park, which is by the Arctic Circle. During your stay at Holiday Club Kuusamon Tropiikki be sure to spend a day or two here to see Finland in a new light.

The first thing you notice about the Karhunkierros Hiking Route is the smell. The aroma of damp earth is omnipresent thanks to the constantly melting snow. This combined with the distinct woods-y smell of pine and the crisp Nordic mountain air is a perfume you’ll want to wear even after you’ve left Finland. Then there’s the call of birds, the gurgling of rivers and streams fed by glacial run-offs, which punctuate the silence of the idyllic surroundings. Along the way you’ll see the foaming rapids and falls of the Kitka river, the peacefully flowing Oulanka river surrounded by silent pine forests, the lush water and the breath-taking, icy, fell tops of Konttinen and Valtavaara.

Another factor that makes the Karhunkierros Hiking Route stand out is the fact that it is well maintained by Finnish authorities with campsites, shelters, and open huts where you can relax or take refuge if it starts to rain. There are also drinking water fountains, kiosks selling food and camping supplies and dry toilets at fixed intervals. All of this combines to make the Karhunkierros Hiking Route a once in a lifetime experience for you and your family.
