Ylivieska Biking Trails

MTB Huhmari is about a five-kilometre forest-and-track loop on Huhmarkallio beside Ylivieska’s Huhmari sports park. For opening context, winter lighting on the shared gravel fitness tracks, the sled hill at Hyypänkallio, and how the MTB line sits next to those facilities, start with the outdoor sports facilities information published by City of Ylivieska(1). The participatory budgeting implementation page(2) describes the mountain-bike project finished toward the end of 2025: roughly two kilometres of new riding for beginners through advanced riders, partly in woodland and partly along the lit gravel loop, with larger optional jump lines at Hyypänkallio, a Salmiperäntie 8 trailhead, and contracting through Trail It Oy after a competitive tender. Kalajokilaakso reported on the timing of that build and how residents voted for the investment(4). The Huhmarin ulkoiluarea Blogspot page mirrors the breadth of the area—kilometres of ski trails (with several kilometres lit), disc golf, biathlon infrastructure, and mountain-bike options—useful as a quick amenity checklist even though it is not an official channel(5). Riding on this line is easiest to picture as a tour of the Huhmarkallio cluster rather than a remote backcountry loop. You leave from the Huhmari competition-centre edge with Huhmarin kisamajan kuntosali and Huhmarin kisamaja nearby, and Huhmarkallion parkkipaikka gives a straightforward place to leave a car. About one kilometre into the circuit you pass Huhmarin kota, a good breather before the climb toward Huhmarin pulkkarinne. On the high side, Huhmarin kuntoportaat sit close to Rinnemajan laavu, Rinnemajan nuotiopaikka, and Huhmarin rinnemaja—practical stops if you want stairs training or a fire-ring shelter before rolling back toward the disc-golf clearing. Huhmarkallio Discgolfpark’s forest course on rolling terrain is documented by the frisbee course registry(6). The same recreation ticket also threads past the lit running circuit Huhmarin valaistukuntorata and parallel winter skiing on Huhmarin valaistulatu. If you want to mix pedalling with longer walking, Joonaala Trail leaves from the same hill system; registry copy for Joonaalan retkeilyreitti appears in Finland’s national outdoor route service(3). An even longer hiking ring in the wider network is Törmälän luontopolku, which shares some facilities around the competition buildings.
