Tahko Stairs

Tahko Stairs are the longest stairs in Finland. 800 meters, 1054 steps. It runs along the mountainside, among the trees. This staircase is an excellent exercise machine. The height of the steps varies in different areas. Each site offers exercises, information about which is indicated on special posters. You can independently vary the speed of ascent and descent, use different step options.

In addition, the stairs allow you to climb to the top of the slopes and admire the surroundings (unforgettable views open up from here). We only recommend that you dress comfortably, do not forget about sports shoes, take water and a light snack with you. We also highly recommend using repellents.

Chairlifts
