"Lake Vesijärvi and the harbour area of Lahti, Salpausselkä with its ridges, flat fields with red barns and farmhouses, the rugged lake scenery of Lake Päijänne on Pulkkilanharju and the winding Kopsuontie. It's an unforgettable route for even the most experienced cyclist." This is how Lahti Events, which organises the UCI Gran Fondo Tour Lakeland, describes it.
The Tour Lakeland route starts at Sibelius Hall on the shore of Lake Vesijärvi and goes via Paimela to Vääksy. From there, the route continues to the eight-kilometre-long Pulkkilanharju ridge that cuts through South Päijänne and further towards Sysmä. Both Vääksy and Pulkkilanharju are excellent resting places for jogging cyclists. From Pulkkilanharju, the Medio Fondo route continues to Kalkkinen, where Mani Bar, a classic country bar familiar to many cyclists, is located. After Kalkkinen, the most challenging part of the route, the winding and rolling Kopsuontie, lies ahead.
Lahti's landmarks, masts and ski jumps, familiar from the Vesijärvi tour, begin to appear on the horizon already twenty kilometers before Lahti. The rest is a nicely winding and well-maintained road and partly a pedestrian and bicycle lane before arriving back in the urban area.
