Mountain biking is allowed on all trails in the forests from Kauppi to Niihama except the Soukonvuori protected area where mountain biking is prohibited. This area is marked by warning signs.

And so, if you start your journey from Kauppi, just set the course to the East and pick the trails as they come. Predominant part of local trails is fairly simple, bouncy at the worst case. However, there are quite a few technically difficult sections, which might catch you by surprise. Don't worry though, as the amount af available trails always gives you the option to ride around on an easier trail.
