Korpi Gravel
The best routes begin with the crunch of gravel. They take you through silent northern forests and past clear wilderness ponds — towards places you won't find in guidebooks.
Four different ways to experience the North.
Classic Gravel Ride
The classic introduction to the world of Korpi Gravel. We follow quiet gravel roads that wind through the embrace of northern forests and along the shores of clear ponds.
Feel the crunch of gravel under your tires and the peace of the northern nature with every pedal stroke.
Gravel Ride & Local Lifestyle
Active cycling and authentic northern tradition. The day offers the crunch of gravel and challenging fell landscapes that lead us to the historic Pohjolan Pirtti. In addition to baking traditional local barley flatbread and buns, a delicious lunch is served.
After the program, you'll be ready to get back in the saddle – enriched with many experiences.
Midnight Sun Gravel Ride
When the sun doesn't set, the forest takes on a different character. We set off in the evening and cycle through the middle of the nightless night, with only the faint sound of tires and the northern light accompanying us.
Experience the silence of Kuusamo at a moment when time stands still.
Oulanka Wild Ride
Korpi Gravel's most challenging tour for those seeking true adventure. The route circles the outskirts of Oulanka National Park, where the wilderness is pristine. The journey takes you through majestic landscapes – from the old mill at Myllykoski all the way to the red cliffs and roaring waters of Kiutaköngäs.
Let the northern wilderness take you
to places others only dream of.
"The bike is just a tool. The wilderness is the destination."
From Kuusamo. To gravel roads.
Korpi Gravel was born out of a desire to experience the Nordic nature firsthand and in complete tranquility. The best experiences are found when you turn away from the most familiar routes and let forest roads carry you away – through majestic fell landscapes, along flowing rivers, and to the shores of peaceful ponds.
I have cycled these routes for years on my own, until I realized that these experiences should be shared with others.
Now I guide small groups to my most familiar favorite trails. Every shared riding day is designed so that you can truly feel the forest – not just see it!
