Activities
On the 17th of May the new Nordic walking park, Nordic Fitness Sports Park, opened. The park offers the joys of Nordic walking in eight different Nordic walking routes around Kalajoki Hiekkasärkät. The Route network is 44 kilometers long and it passes through beautiful marine scenery. Have you ever tried Nordic walking? If you arrive in Finland this summer and see people walking with ski poles, you've just witnessed Nordic walking. It is easier than cross - country skiing and more effective than conventional walking. Developed in Finland a decade ago, Nordic walking is a great all - round form of exrcise that you can enjoy alone or with others. All you need are poles and a path, and off you go. Walking poles can be hired at hotels.
The summer in Kalajoki Hiekkasärkät offers a lot of events, theater and music. We also have a lot of program services and you can familiarize yourself with the beautiful nature of Kalajoki by bike, boat, water jet, off road car, ATV or by riding a horse. In addition, the Marine Nature Centre is worth going to and familiarizing yourself with so you can learn more about the area. It offers information about the nature and cultural heritage of the Northern Gulf of Bothnia.
