Mountain bike trails in Rokua National Park

The terrain of the Rokua ridge and dune area is perfect for mountain biking: the routes are wide and level, with only few difficult rocks or ruts. In the National Park area there are about 45 kilometres of marked mountain bike trails on the ridges; here the gradients can be challenging even for experienced cyclists and mountain bike enthusiasts. In winter, a 9.4-kilometre multi-use trail also suitable for fatbiking is maintained in Rokua.

Please stay on the marked mountain bike trails! The terrain in Rokua is very fragile. Cycling off the trails causes unnecessary wear and tear on the landscape and vegetation.

Oulu River Valley Tar Route

The Tar Route follows the Oulu River from Sankivaara in Oulu to the Rokua National Park. The route is challenging for mountain bikers in places, especially in the swampy areas and on the rocky banks of the Oulu River. Please be careful when cycling as there are also hikers on the Tar Route.
