Nordic walking in the fell forest

You meet your Nordic walking guide at rental of Zero Point at Front pistes (Hissitie 8), where you get suitable walking sticks for your height and a wristop computer. After warming up and learning the basics of Nordic walking you walk along footpaths, past a beautiful fellside lake towards the forest trails. In the forest, the route follows easy, bark-covered footpaths. On the way, you pass such sights as two small marshy lakes. The route ends at the green golf course, which surrounds the fellside lake. 

You can study the data from your wristop computer with the help of the instructor at the golf course's restaurant Draivi. You can also enjoy a refreshing drink to help you recover. The total length of the route is 3.4 km. You should aim to keep your pulse level at 50-70% of the maximum level, depending on your level of fitness; that is to say, you should be able to talk without puffing and blowing.

The Levi Nordic Fitness Sports Park is a part of international Nordic Fitness Sport Park concept.
