Ahmatupa track 16 km / 17 km

Syöte Visitor Centre is the starting point for the Ahmatupa track. The track is located mainly in the Syöte National Park area. The most popular ski track alternative is to ski through the Annintupa and Välitupa to the Ahmatupa gently ascending hill and take the same way back, enjoying the downhill slide (alltogether 16 km). The biggest downhill starts right from the National Park parking lot – also the biggest uphill when coming back. Another track alternative is to go back to the National Park from Ahmatupa through Ylpiätupa (alltogether 17 km).
