Two days of fully supported riding, with a comfortable overnight, covering 300km of excellent rolling gravel. Hosted in the beautiful autumn scenery of the Finnish south coast and the UNESCO Salpausselkä Geopark region.

On day one the route will take you south towards the Baltic Sea with a lunch stop at the old harbour town of Loviisa. You will continue west from there to the medieval and picturesque town of Porvoo for the night. We offer you a boutique hotel or bed and breakfast option for the night.

Day two takes you back north, along winding roads and forests into the Päjänne region. For the last 50kms, and into the rolling hills of the Salpausselkä Geopark region, you will be joining the other FLL riders.
