Skiing just outside Helsinki

During the next days the temperatures should drop a bit below zero again. This might be one of the last chances to go skiing. And if you are more into downhill then cross country skiing you can visit one of the skiing areas just outside Helsinki.

One destination that is nice and easy to reach from Helsinki is the Vihti skiing area. During the winter there are daily busses getting you there. The ride including one day skiing pass is 39 €. The bus leaves from Rauttatientori every morning at 9:15. During the trip it stops several times picking up more people e.g. in Lauttasaari, Tapiola and Kainianen. You have the whole day in Vihti before arriving back in the center around 17:00.

For more information on the skiing area and the bus timetable check the official website.

Have fun!
