Snowmobile routes and tracks

There are about 200 km of official snowmobile trails maintained by the city of Kemijärvi. The snowmobile trails are marked and surfaced trails, which are maintained with snowmobile equipment. Signposting, bridges, road signs and other equipment are checked in the autumn and any deficiencies are corrected before the start of the sledging season.

The Pyhä route connects to the Pyhä-Luosto area and on to Sodankylä, Pelkosenniemi and Savukoski. The Suomu route connects to Salla and from there to Ruka and Kuusamo. The Rovaniemi route has connections to Rovaniemi.

The snowmobile route from the Rovaniemi border via the centre of Kemijärvi to Finland is part of the international White Sea Snowmobile Route, which starts in northern Sweden and runs through Finnish Lapland to Alakurtti in Russia.
