Tour skating in the lake Näsijärvi
In the winter, when the lake Näsijärvi has thick-enough ice, a company called Hiking Travel HIT maintains a free tour skating track on the lake. The main track goes along the shore from Kaupinoja to Onkiniemi. The Siilinkari Cafe (in the middle of the lake) serves skaters and walkers alike. There is also an Eastbound track from Kaupinoja and a Northbound route from Siilinkari. Hiking Travel HIT rents all the needed equipment from their equipment rental located in Kaupinoja. Follow their website/Facebook for the up-to-date info on the track and its maintenance.
