Jyväskylä Ski Marathon – two distances of 50 km and 34 km – each in the classic and free technique. The ski route in this race follows the famous Metso Route. The Metso Route is a nature trail that connects Jyväskylä with Laukaa. It is used by hikers, trail runners and mountain bikers in summer and offers spectacular cross-country skiing in winter. The trail is hilly and offers a backdrop of varied forest landscapes.
The 50 km route is ridden from Vaajakoski to Peurunka. The first half of this route is rather challenging and hilly, while the second half is much flatter. The 34 km route goes from Vaajakoski to Peurunka. The 34 km route is suitable for active skiers and hobbyists.
