On the Matkalampi Trail, you enjoy the most beautiful needle trails of Liperi's Kinttupolut and varied terrain.
One highlight of the route is the paths of the Kotisalo Nature Reserve near a pond called Hovatta, where there is also a small swimming pier. The private nature reserve, funded by the Nature Heritage Foundation, private individuals, and companies, is known especially for ancient pines, among which you might hear a woodpecker tapping on dead trees. In a good blueberry summer, you will find delicious blueberries beside the trail. You can learn more from the introductory video about the Kotisalo Nature Reserve.
The Matkalampi Trail is 16 km in total and includes, in addition to needle trails, ski tracks, cart paths, cobblestone ridge trails, a few gravel road sections, and a beautiful path along Sompalampi's shore, where one of the route's lean-tos can also be found.
The Matkalampi Trail is mostly fast to ride except for a few rocky sections.
The Matkalampi Trail is marked on the terrain with blue color. It is easy to follow the route thanks to good guidance, but you can download the gpx file or print the Kinttupolut trail map if you wish. On the terrain, you can easily see your location from the guide maps at the trail intersections. On gravel road sections (2 x about 1.5 km) the trail markings are sparser, but the diverging trail is clearly visible.
