City of Heinola – Korvenlammen reitti+

Description

The Korvenlampi Loop is about 14 km of hiking and mountain biking in Heinola, Päijät-Häme, tying together the Valo-Ilves recreation corridor, varied forest paths, and Juustopolku (Heinola) into one long circuit. The city describes it as a scenic, partly hilly mix of lake views, ponds, and changing forest, with warning markers at steep drops, rocky pitches, and road crossings where you need extra care. For printable PDF maps, current wording on facilities, and winter rules on groomed tracks, start from the City of Heinola’s Korvenlammen reitti page. The City of Heinola also publishes the main trails index, where you can see how this loop fits about 130 km of marked routes in the municipality. The route is marked with red wooden arrows for counter-clockwise travel. Along the way you pass Salijärven nuotiopaikka by Iso-Salijärvi, and about three kilometres from the start you are near Ylä-Musterin kota and its fireplace a short detour off the through path. Around Jyrängön you cross paths with outdoor gyms, beaches, and local sports areas; Jyrängön uimaranta is a natural swim stop if the day is warm. Koskensaaren laavu and Koskensaaren nuotiopaikka sit on the Koskensaari side of the loop for a longer break before you climb toward Paviljonginharjun kuntoportaat. Near the end, Korvenlammen tulipaikka sits at Korvenlampi; the city notes there is no firewood service at that fireplace. The same circuit is shared with the Korvenlammen Kierros (mtb) line, and it meets Valo-Ilves, Läpiän lenkki, Juustopolku (Heinola), Koskensaaren luontopolku, Sepänniemen luontopolku, and shorter Jyrängön exercise loops, so you can shorten or extend the day from several junctions. Mountain bikers share the tread with hikers; Bikeland profiles Valo-Ilves as an 11 km lit winter-sports base between Vierumäki and Jyränkö with about 129 m of climbing and a highest point near 150 m, which helps explain the rolling feel where Korvenlammen shares that same section. Wet roots and frost can make steep sections slipperier than they look in summer. During the ski season the groomed Valo-Ilves tracks are reserved for skiers only, so avoid walking or cycling on the prepared ski line when it is in winter use.

Length & route

The trail is about 14 km as one circuit linking Valo-Ilves, forest trails, and Juustopolku. It is marked with red arrows for counter-clockwise travel. Warning markers highlight steep descents, rocky steps, and road crossings. Some municipal materials round the distance to about 15 km for the same loop.

Getting there

Heinola publishes a printable Korvenlammen map as a PDF from the Korvenlammen reitti page, which is the best place to match parking and junction names to your planned start. Because the loop ties into Valo-Ilves, Juustopolku, and Koskensaari access paths, you can join from several trailheads around Jyränkö, Koskensaari, or the Vierumäki–Heinola corridor depending on whether you arrive by car or from other routes. Check winter track status before driving to a Valo-Ilves access point if you plan to walk while grooming is active.

Good to know

The Korvenlammen tulipaikka has no supplied firewood; bring your own or plan cold meals if you stop there. During the ski season, stay off groomed Valo-Ilves ski tracks on foot or bike. Printed outdoor maps are sold at Heinola culture office, library, and swimming hall for a small fee if you want a paper overview of the wider 130 km network.
