Sirkka – Skiing, Bike Park and Winter Trails

Levi is located in Sirkka. If you are looking for a hotel in Sirkka, it helps to decide what you want to focus on during your trip: skiing, the bike park or winter trails. The options can be distinguished by different features, such as piste colours, the length of a trail network or the starting point of cycling routes.

Getting there and finding your way

There are also two specific reference points for getting there. Ski bus route R1 runs from Zero Point via the North-Eastern Slopes and Hossa to Sirkka School, and continues along Muoniontie and Myllyjoentie. The timetable may vary by season; check departures for your travel dates. An airport bus runs between Kittilä Airport and Levi for every arriving and departing domestic flight. Match its timetable to your specific flight details, as the availability of this flight-linked service may change. R1 runs via Zero Point, the North-Eastern Slopes and Hossa to Sirkka School, and then along two roads; the airport bus connects Kittilä and Levi and is linked to arriving and departing domestic flights. This makes it possible to match each detail to the relevant part of your journey.

Skiing and the bike park

The Front Slopes are Levi’s main ski slopes and also form the centre of the village. They are rated as red runs and present a certain challenge for beginners. When assessing the descents, take both details into account: their red rating and the challenge they pose for beginners. Levi Ski Resort also offers a ski school.

At Levi Bike Park, trails range from an easy green route to a difficult black route. The park also offers guided bike park courses and lessons with official FMBIA bike park instructors. The trail colours indicate the routes’ difficulty; courses and lessons are another aspect of the offering. This lets you distinguish between trail profiles and the courses available when planning your visit.

Winter hiking and cycling

Levi’s winter hiking trails are approximately 20 kilometres long in total and are groomed by snowmobiles. This distance refers to all the trails combined, not to the distance of a single hike. For planning purposes, the approximate size of the trail network and the way it is groomed are two separate points of reference.

The winter cycling routes towards Kätkätunturi and Lake Immeljärvi start right next to the Levi Tourist Information office. On Levi’s Aurora map, Immeljärvi is marked as a place to see the Northern Lights. The cycling routes indicate a starting point and directions to destinations; the Aurora map marks Immeljärvi as a viewing spot. This means the same name can be understood differently depending on your plans.
