Description

For marked-route directions, difficulty labels, and connector details, check the City of Hollola's cycling and cross-country trails pages. Tiirismaa lies in Salpausselkä UNESCO Global Geopark; Visit Lahti's Salpausselkä UNESCO Global Geopark hub explains how the ridge landscapes and geology sites are presented across the region. Tiirismaan huippupolku is a mountain bike loop of about 5.1 km on our map. Hollola lists the same ride at roughly 5.7 km and describes it as intermediate, with a recommended counter-clockwise circuit marked with blue arrow markers and blue mountain bike symbols. Expect forest singletrack and short rocky pitches on the high ground; listings often quote on the order of 140 m of climbing and a high point around 216 m. The first couple of kilometres are typically the most technical, with roots, rock, and tight turns, before the loop opens into somewhat easier rolling forest. About 4.3 km into the ride you reach Martan Maja Laavu, a lean-to with a campfire place where you can pause above Pirunpesä's quartzite gorge. The City of Hollola's Tiirismaa circuit trail page describes Pirunpesä's steep walls and the Martan Maja setting for visitors who also walk the hiking network in the same hill forest. Close to the same cluster you pass Pirunpesän nuotiopaikka and can look toward the Pirunpesä ja Tiirismaa viewpoint area. Toward the end of the loop, Tiiristupa sits near Keskikankaantie as a reservable wilderness hut–style stop if you are linking rest days or shorter hikes with the bike loop. From the Arvi Hauvosentie trailhead area you can branch onto Tiirismaan villilenkki for a longer, more demanding MTB loop, join Tiirismaa Tour for a walking circuit of the ridge, or follow Järvien kierros toward the Tiilijärvi beaches and outdoor fitness points. Hollopolku and Mörripolku offer short connectors toward Messilä and Tiiristupa, and Messilän ladut/Hollola shares the same forest mosaic as a winter ski network when snow covers the fells. Electric fatbikes and mountain bikes are available from Kitetirri Outdoors in Lahti; their rental desk at Salpausselkä Park states the bikes suit the signed Salpausselkä Trails and Tiirismaa Trails networks, with helmets and locks included in the hire.

Length & route

The trail is about 5.1 km as a loop on our map. Hollola describes the same mountain bike circuit at roughly 5.7 km with a 0.6 km road connector from Arvi Hauvosentie parking to the marked MTB trails. Expect on the order of 140 m of elevation gain and a summit around 216 m on listings for this loop. The route is drawn as a closed loop; ride counter-clockwise as the municipality recommends.

Getting there

Stage from the Arvi Hauvosentie 1 parking area in Hollola: the City of Hollola lists a 0.6 km signed connector from the car park to the Tiirismaa MTB trails, including Huippupolku. You can also reach the ridge from Lahti and Hollola centres on bike paths and local outdoor routes. Confirm the latest parking layout on the city’s pages before you leave.

Good to know

Winter maintenance is not provided for this summer MTB line; ice, mud, and leaf fall change traction quickly—check Hollola's pages for seasonal notes. Stay on marked bike trails in the geologically sensitive Pirunpesä area. Kitetirri Outdoors applies dynamic pricing for rentals; bring ID, and read their booking terms before you reserve.

Where to rent bikes

KITETIRRI OUTDOORS rents electric fatbikes (Tunturi, GZR, Niekka, Fantic sizes listed on the booking page) for use on signed Salpausselkä Trails and Tiirismaa Trails; pick-up and return at Salpausselkä Park, Hämeenlinnantie 59, 15830 Lahti, with helmet and lock included, ID required, and dynamic pricing shown when you choose date and duration in the online shop.
