Snowmobile routes and tracks
In Finland, snowmobiling is possible on official snowmobile routes as well as on snowmobile tracks maintained by municipalities and Metsähallitus.
The official snowmobile routes are roads as defined in the Road Traffic Act and their use is free of charge. The snowmobile tracks of Metsähallitus are subject to a charge and driving on them requires a track permit.
You are only allowed to drive only on tracks opened by Metsähallitus with a track permit, so always check the current status of the tracks before driving.
Please note that the snowmobile tracks in Kainuu are now maintained by the municipalities. You can get the current track information from the municipalities. Track permits for Kainuu are available in the webshop of the city of Kuhmo.
