Kesäisessä maisemassa yksityiskohta puisesta Lintharjun maamerkistä. Tervatussa rungossa on kyltti, jossa lukee Lintharju on huippu.

Lintharju is the most versatile outdoor area in Suonenjoki, where you can rejuvenate both in summer and winter. The magnificent ridge area has trails for hiking, mountain biking and also skiing. Take a basket for mushrooms or rent an electric mountain bike and explore the beautiful ridge area! Bring a snack to the lean-to or pop into the Lintharju Sports Center after outdoor activities to swim, take a sauna and enjoy what the café has to offer.

Nature trail

You can explore the nature of Lintharju along the nature trail that is 13 kilometers long. There are information boards along the trail on which you can find information on the nature in the area. Thanks to the connecting trails, shorter routes can also be taken.

Get the thrill of speed by mountain biking

Those who enjoy going faster can get to know Lintharju by mountain bike. Lintharju’s trails are mainly quite easy through heath forest terrain, but in places the ridge hills with big reliefs create challenges. The trails are marked on the terrain with yellow paint markings and guide signs. The trail is partly on nature reserve and Natura areas. So please respect nature while cycling and keep on the marked trails.

In addition to Lintharju, you can also find Simola and Koskelo mountain bike trails in Suonenjoki.
