Lieroisen lenkki is a day hike and mountain-bike circuit in the Pihlajavesi countryside in Keuruu, Central Finland. My Pihlajavesi, run by the maintaining village association, tells the story of the route’s name and lists sights and GPX downloads(1). The City of Keuruu links route maps and a dedicated MTB sheet for the same circuit alongside its wider outdoor network(2). Visit Jyväskylä Region situates Pihlajavesi in the region’s gravel and touring options and notes how shorter loops can be combined with longer rides such as Gallén-kierros(5). The trail is about 12.3 km and forms a circuit through pine forest, forest roads, and short rougher trail sections. About 4.2 km from the start you pass Pihlajaveden aseman pallokenttä near the Pihlajavesi station area—a useful landmark if you are linking walks. Around 11 km along the route you reach Valkeisen uimapaikka Keuruu on the shore of Lake Valkeinen, where the path runs close to a swimming beach in the trees. The same area connects on the ground to Gallén-kierros and Vanhan kirkon lenkki, so you can extend a day with the wider Pihlajavesi trail network without backtracking far. My Pihlajavesi recommends walking counter-clockwise from Kauppala and describes about one kilometre of rougher forest trail, about one kilometre beside a public road, and two guarded level crossings over the railway—worth extra care with children or dogs(1). Jälki.fi’s updated GPX entry notes blue Pihlaja markers and ribbons, a roughly one-kilometre off-road section, and that the rebuilt trail tread was still settling in places in 2020(3). Finsilva describes how part of the route crosses company forest land near Lieran piiloluola and Valkeinen, and how landowners work with the village association on signage(4). For closures, events such as Erämaapäivät, and the latest maintenance contacts, check My Pihlajavesi and the City of Keuruu pages(1)(2).

Hartunlampi Nature Trail is about 4.7 km in Keuruu, Central Finland. It runs through the Ketvelniemi residential peninsula and circles forest lake Hartunlampi, mixing narrow forest paths with short road links and wider paths near housing. For route description, recommended direction, parking options, and seasonal notes, start with the Visit Jyväskylä Region Lipas listing for this trail(1). Keurusselkä Resort’s guide stresses varied ground on the Ketvelniemi fringe, narrow rocky stretches in places, and very wet shoreline sections in spring when the water is high—worth packing sturdy footwear after snowmelt(2). The City of Keuruu links a PDF map Hartunlampi ja Ketvelniemi alongside other Ketvelniemi area routes on its sports routes page(3). The trail is marked with blue paint markers where several paths cross; sources recommend walking counter-clockwise around the lake(1)(2). After roughly 3.5 km you pass Kiviselän uimapaikka and Kiviselän uimarannan tulipaikka at Haaratie 19—swimming and a campfire spot without firewood supply on site(1). Oksatien leikkikenttä sits a little further along the route near the same kilometre band. Toward the end, the route uses broader recreation paths and joins the lit Ketvelniemen valaistu kuntorata; you can use that link to reach the beach area from Latvatie or step off toward Kaivoslahden lintutorni on the wider Ketvelniemi trail network in winter(1). Keuruu is a good base for lake and forest day trips; this route is short enough for an evening walk but shared with many local walkers, runners, and skiers connecting from Ketvelniemi tracks.

The Kivelä outdoor area Mahlakorpi trail is about 7 km as a forest loop on the edge of Keuruu in Central Finland, beside Lake Keurusselkä. It is an easy, path-style summer hiking circuit with a halfway rest at Mahlakorven kota and firewood-supplied fireplaces. For route descriptions, PDF map booklet links, GPX for the lit fitness loop, grooming status via the winter map, and connections to other ski circuits, rely on the City of Keuruu’s Kivelä outdoor area page(1). Visit Jyväskylä Region’s Lipas sheet lists width, natural surface notes, and the same Mahlakota midpoint(2). From the Kelloniementie area you join a counter-clockwise circuit that threads mixed pine and birch forest. Within the first few hundred metres you pass Häntämäen tulipaikka, a fireplace reachable from the parking side toward the lit track mast line described on the city page(1). About 3.7 km along, Mahlakorven kota offers a Lappish-style hut, a shared fireplace with supplied firewood, and an outdoor dry toilet—practical lunch or wind shelter on a half-day walk(1)(2). The loop returns toward Kivelän lähiliikuntapaikka and open ground near Kaskitien pallokenttä, so you move between denser woodland and more open recreation edges in one lap. The same footprint doubles as the summer hiking line and the winter Mahlakorvenlenkki ski loop, and it overlaps the mountain bike Mahlakorvenlenkki and the lit Kivelän valaistu kuntorata and Kivelän valaistu latu corridors where those routes share the Kivelä trailhead—handy if you want to switch between walking, skiing, or easy riding without driving elsewhere. Keuruun keskustan melontareitti passes close to the western shore network if you combine paddling on Keurusselkä with a walk the same day. Near the area, Murron kivi is signposted as Keuruu’s largest glacial erratic for a short side interest(1). Winter maintenance and lighting for the parallel 4.6 km lit fitness track follow the general city rules for Keuruu’s kuntoradat—lights off at 21:00—and the winter route map shows how this loop links toward the centre across the ice in season(3).

Keurusselän liikuntapuisto is an about 8.2 km hiking route through the Keurusselä sports and recreation area south of Keuruu, on the shore of Lake Keurusselkä in Central Finland. The City of Keuruu publishes summer trail PDFs and a wider route map for the Keurusselä network together with guidance on lit fitness tracks and seasonal ski grooming(1). The municipality’s outdoor pages list the same park at Keurusseläntie as an 18-hole competition-level disc golf venue with shorter layout options, plus a lean-to, outdoor chapel, adventure course, sand courts, and reservable space for outdoor events(1). Frisbeegolfradat.fi adds that the course opened in 2019, is free to play, uses artificial turf tees, and splits roughly between a hilly park front nine and a technical forest back nine with strong elevation change(2). PDGA also indexes the layout for tournament players checking ratings and layouts(3). Along the first kilometre you pass the resort-side services: tennis and padel beside Keurusseläntie, the spa and hotel beach, and the Lomahotellin uimapaikka swimming spot—useful if you combine a walk with swimming or racket sports. A little farther along the trail, about one kilometre from the start, the wooded sports cluster brings together the Keurusselän liikuntapuisto lean-to, the 18-hole disc golf course, a multi-purpose ball field, and Keurusselän ampumahiihtokeskus biathlon range, so you can plan breaks, spectating, or a side activity without leaving the park. The same corridor is shared in other seasons with running and mountain-biking variants and with lit cross-country ski tracks in winter; Sikoniemen luontopolku starts nearby if you want a shorter nature loop toward Hinkanniemi. Snowmobile routes and long ice-ski networks elsewhere around Keurusselä meet the park at several points—use care where fast winter traffic crosses quiet walking sections.

Koskireitti is about 8.6 km as a circular hiking route through rapid and backwoods scenery around Pihlajavesi in Keuruu, Central Finland. Keuruu lists gravel and local outdoor PDFs together with a hub for Pihlajavesi routes on My Pihlajavesi; that destination article is the best single place for clockwise start, overlap with Pirkan Taival, fishing permit rules, and maintenance contact(1)(2). Retkipaikka’s Luontopolkumies walk-through of the same trail adds detail on bridges, the highest hill, and how markings look on the ground(3). Visit Jyväskylä Region presents Pihlajavesi as a wider cycling and culture destination in the Jyväskylä area(4). The trail is a loop. Sources recommend walking clockwise from Karansalmen kylätalo, where fishing permits for the special area are also sold(2). Early on you reach Kuuskosken Laavu - Keuruu, a lean-to in riverside forest. Around the mid-loop, Pihlaiskosket Kalastuspaikka and Pihlaiskosken kota sit on the Pihlaiskosket stretch: My Pihlajavesi describes roughly 2.1 km of river between Vähälampi and Kuusijärvi, footbridges over the rapids, stocked trout and grayling, beaver, and seasonal fishing closures; check their rules before fishing(2). Kokinkota offers another shelter further along. Near Karansalmen kylätalo at the end of the loop, the building doubles as a community focal point beside the shore. Highlights from field descriptions include Pukkisilta between Pihlaislampi and Vähälampi (Retkipaikka notes a 1972 bridge here) and Kuusivuori as a high point above the lakes(3). Markings combine blue ribbon and wooden rowan-berry signs(2)(3). Stretches can be narrow and damp; waterproof footwear and long trousers are sensible when the ground is wet(3). Part of the route uses quiet village and forest roads, so ordinary road awareness applies(2). The same corridor meets Kontioreitti, a signed mountain bike loop in Keuruu’s network, and longer walking routes such as Gallén-kierros / Gallenkierros in places—useful if you want to extend a day from Pihlajavesi.

For maps of the full hill network and junctions, start with the City of Keuruu sports routes page, which links to the downloadable Ilovuori outdoor routes PDF(1). The Luontoon.fi page for Ilovuoren 3,2 km luontopolku describes the main signposted nature loop in mixed forest: about 3.2 km, mostly level and wide enough for ordinary shoes in normal conditions, with a recommended counter-clockwise direction and about 45–60 minutes on foot(2). Visit Jyväskylä Region notes that Ilon laavu sits along these nature trails, with access also from the end of Miilutie and roughly 400 m of path from there(3). The trail is about 7.1 km as one line through the Ilovuori recreation area in Keuruu in Central Finland. Along the way you pass Ilon Laavu, a lean-to with firewood for a meal stop; there is no serviced toilet on the lean-to listing, so plan ahead(2)(3). About one kilometre from the usual start near Keuruun Auto, Nyyssänniemi camping offers additional services for visitors staying in the area(2). Keuruun tennishalli lies near the corridor for anyone combining a walk with other sports in town. The area is a popular local outing and a venue for orienteering-style trail running events on separate marked exercise loops(2). Suomen luonnonsuojeluliitto Keurusseutu has introduced guided walks toward Ilon laavu for residents discovering the conservation landscape and trail network(4). Read more on our page for Ilon Laavu for the shelter itself; check the City of Keuruu page(1) and Luontoon.fi(2) before you go for the latest on maintenance and access.

Sikoniemi Nature Trail is a short lakeshore hike on Keurusselkä in Keuruu. Keuruu lies in Central Finland. The same path appears in national outdoor listings as Sikoniemen luontopolku on Luontoon.fi(1), while the City of Keuruu publishes detailed access and service notes under the local name Hinkanniemen luontopolku on its outdoor destinations pages(2). The trail is about 2 km as mapped here along the Keurusselkä shoreline; municipal materials sometimes describe a slightly longer loop of about 3 km when the return leg via roads and the cottage area is included(2). Metsähallitus catalogues the route for map browsing and general planning(1). For firewood at the lean-to, fire rules at the shore fireplace, and the exact start from the resort jetty, the City of Keuruu’s trail page is the practical place to confirm details before you go(2). The route is marked in blue and is intended to be walked clockwise from the Keurusselkä Resort boat dock on Keurusseläntie(2). The terrain along the shore is moderately hilly with short rocky and narrow path sections; nature-themed questions along the way add interest for families(2). Soon after the start, a fireplace sits on the shore to the right; firewood can be arranged via the resort or you can bring your own(2). About 0.7 km in you reach the signed turn toward Hinkanniemen laavu—the shelter sits a short detour off the marked route(2). Near the northern end of the walk, the path meets Keurusselkä Resort’s sports and spa area: you pass Lomahotellin uimapaikka, Keurusselän kylpylä, Keurusselän padelkenttä, and Keurusselän tenniskenttä along Keurusseläntie, so swimming, wellness, and court sports are available as add-ons after the hike. Visit Jyväskylä Region highlights Keurusselkä Resort and Lake Keurusselkä in its Keuruu day-trip ideas, including arrival by summer paddle-wheel boat from Keuruu harbour—useful if you are combining a lakeshore walk with dinner or an overnight at the resort(3). The wider Keurusselä Sports Park trails network links here: good gravel routes reach the hotel area, and in winter Jääladut Keuruu ice tracks and Keurusselän valaistut ladut lit ski trails offer a different way to enjoy the same lake landscape(2).

The trail is about 8.4 km as a loop through Pihlajavesi in Keuruu, in Central Finland. Keuruu lies on the shores of large lakes in a mixed forest and cultural landscape. For the latest practical notes on parking, the shorter out-and-back option, and winter care, start with Visit Jyväskylä Region’s Old Church Trail page(2). The same loop is listed nationally on Luontoon.fi(1), and My Pihlajavesi—run by Pihlajaveden kyläyhdistys ry—describes the sights along the way and how the route is marked(3). Walkers follow quiet tracks and gravel roads through Asemankylä and Sahankylä toward Pihlajaveden vanha kirkko, the wooden “wilderness church” in the forest that sources often highlight as an unusual destination. After the church the loop returns toward Asemankylä along Valkeajärventie through a locally important built cultural landscape(3). About three kilometres run beside a public road; sources ask for extra care there(2)(3). The recommended direction is clockwise from the Kauppala starting point(3). Near the start you pass Sahanrannan grillikatos and Sahan uimaranta—a shallow natural sand beach that Visit Jyväskylä Region singles out for families on hot days(2). Further along, Koipikankaan frisbeegolfrata sits beside the trail for a quick detour. The route ties into the wider Gallén-kierros hiking network and Lieroisen lenkki; paddlers share shoreline access points with Pihlaisselän selätys where the networks meet(3). Jalkaisin’s Kontioreitti write-up from Pihlajavesi notes the same blue-backed rowan-berry style markers used on other local loops, which helps you stay oriented when trees are dense(4). Pihlajaveden koulun kaukalo, liikuntasali and ball fields sit beside the line where the route passes the school area—useful context if you arrive by local bus or meet young hikers, but the trail’s draw is the lake shore, church, and forest tracks rather than school sports facilities.

Kivelä outdoor area – Mahlakorven loop is about a 7 km forest loop for cycling in Keuruu, Central Finland, around the same Kivelä trail hub that the City of Keuruu maintains near Lake Keurusselkä. The City of Keuruu describes Mahlakorvenlenkki as an easy, trail-like summer route with natural tread, a shelter and fireplace with firewood, a dry toilet along the loop, and an additional fireplace at Häntämäki reached from the parking area uphill toward the mast—while warning that the descent from the kota is fast and straight before it bends toward the road and crosses it, so riders should brake early and watch for traffic(1). Luontoon.fi lists the same loop under outdoor cycling destinations and pairs it with the wider Kivelä recreation trail set(2). Visit Jyväskylä Region’s Lipas-style listing notes a six-metre corridor and slightly modified natural surface typical of municipal nature trails in the network(3). Following the loop from near Kaskitien pallokenttä, you soon pass Häntämäen tulipaikka—handy for a short fire break—then climb through forest to Mahlakorven kota roughly mid-loop, where you can also arrive by car from Mahlakorventie 317 via about 500 m of forest road(4). From there the route drops toward roads as described by the city, then swings back to Kivelän lähiliikuntapaikka on Kiveläntie. The parallel Kivelän valaistu kuntorata offers a 4.6 km stone-dust fitness loop with lighting if you want an easier warm-up or night lap beside the forest circuit(1)(3). Pedestrians use the same paths in summer, so pass with care on the narrow sections. Winter visitors should follow the City of Keuruu’s trail-maintenance map for ski routes crossing toward downtown and avoid riding on groomed ski tracks(1). Nearby, Murron kivi is called out as Keuruu’s largest glacial erratic for a short side trip by foot(1).
