Experience and see the Vienan reitti
The route is best suited for hiking and canoeing during the thaw. The ridges of the Tornionsärkkä and the nearby Itärajan retkeilyreitti are ideal for mountain biking. The terrain is mainly dry, dry woodland. Some swampy areas can be crossed via a narrow path. Forest roads cross nearby and the Rautiaisen mylly, Jumalanhyväaho and Särkänpolvi campfire site are easily accessible from Malahviantie road.
There is no maintenance on the route in winter, so snowshoes and forest skis are the best experiencing the route.
The Porrasjoki-Isojoki route is best suited for canoeing, with two rapids to navigate. From Kevättijärvi, you can paddle along the Välijoki river to Kivi-Keväti and continue along the Aittojoki river towards Viiankijärvi.
