Beautiful scenery, historical sights, and safe cycle paths attract both locals and visitors to ride this circular route of just over 20 kilometres.<\/p>\n

The route goes through a culturally significant landscape and passes several historical artists’ homes such as Jean Sibelius\u2019 Ainola and Halosenniemi, the log-built wilderness studio. On the rural west side of the lake, it is difficult to believe that the urban Helsinki city centre is a mere 30 kilometres away.<\/p>\n

If you do not have time to go around the whole lake, you can either cycle a shorter distance, such as the scenic museum road Rantatie (approximately 4 km \/ 2 miles in length), where you can find many of the cultural sites<\/a>.<\/p>\n
