The whole hiking route is now marked and the resting place (hut) on the ice is open.

Today we were able to mark the entire sledge/hiking route from Oravi to Järvisydän. The ships might be driving until the end of December so you should always check the shipping situation with the waterways agency (Saimaa VTS) before crossing the channel! Today we also towed the hut to the same place as last winter. The hut is located about 2.5 km from Oravi and can be safely reached by walking or skiing along a marked route. So there are no channel crossings between Oravi and Linnansaari. You can find the link to the hut firewood fee here.
