Mountain biking

The firm terrain and varied elevations of Hämeenkangas are well suited for mountain biking. Mountain biking is permitted on Hämeenkangas trails and on roads in accordance with Everyman's rights. There is also a Geobike mountain biking trail along which you can see the best sights in the area.

  • The smooth needle trails of Hämeenkangas are ideal for mountain biking. The challenge here is the variation in elevation.
  • The Geobike trail is not maintained in the winter, during which time some of the trails are used as ski tracks.
  • Pirkan ura and Pirkan taipale Trails can also be used for longer distance mountain biking trips. The Pirkan ura Trail starts at Niinisalo in Kankaanpää and passes through Hämeenkangas. The trail continues as the Pirkan taipale trail network to Ylöjärvi via Ikaalinen and Hämeenkyrö. The trail is a 90-kilometre-long hiking trail suitable for trekking. Municipalities are responsible for maintaining the trail in their own respective areas.
