  • Riding on traffic-free endless gravel roads of Central Lapland
  • Great wilderness shelters on the way, offering comfort, protection as well as wilderness history of the area
  • High quality services available in Kemijärvi, Pyhä and Luosto in otherwise wild and remote Cental Lapland taig
  • Crossing the 200km section of no services is a nice contrast to the otherwise relatively service rich route.
