Saukkovaara resort, Ristijarvi, Kajaani, Finland

Our Slopes cater for all levels from kids and beginners to experienced skiers. However, this year we are not planning to open a "black run" and it will only be open next season along with our Extreme Park. Allow our slopes to give you a real feeling of pleasure as you glide over the smooth snow.

Don't worry; the slopes are extremely safe with no sharp turns. All our slopes meet at 2 points where T-lifts will take you straight back to the top.

The rental shop is located right next to the slopes and you can rent skies or snow boards for both adults and for kids. Also special kids' sleds can be rented here

This year you can chose from our brand new range of equipment from .

If downhill skiing is not your thing, Saukkovaara ski tracks cover as far as the eye can see. The slopes range from 3.5 to 10 km and they are open for traditional and free style skiing. We also have 3 km of illuminated ski tracks and 7.5km of picturesque Sun ski track.

As you guide yourself through the tracks the pristine snow, clean air and being able to hear a pin drop will overwhelm you.

If you come to Finland, you can't leave this beautiful country without getting the true Safari experience.

If you fancy yourself as a bit of a nature explorer, then try the Husky Safari or if you feel like something less extreme hop on board a snowmobile. Book here for any of the above.
