There are nice bicycle routes in Himos where you can just go and wander about. Some of the routes are on paved and sand roads. Other routes take you to the iconic Finnish forest landscape to the trails of Himos mountain. We assure, that you will find suitable trails for your spirit, physical condition, equipment and time table.
Jämsä town is only 7 kilometers away, so going shopping or just sightseeing is quite easy with a bicycle. The town of Jämsänkoski is located about 14 kilometers from Himos, through Jämsä, so it’s possible to see two places in one day by bicycle. Attractions in easy biking distance are for example Witikkalan kartano (about 7 km), Felt factory Lahtiset (15 km) or Hallinportti Aviation Museum (30 km)
In the summer time, the routes and trails are just waiting for bicycles. The long days of summer offer you a possibility for a whole day biking trip in Himos or nearby attractions, such as Vororotti (about 20 km from Himos) or Oravivuori Nature Trail and Triangulation Tower (about 25 km from Himos).
During winter and snow, eFatbikes offer you a great possibility to test your leg muscles and feel the crisp air in the woods of Himos.

Himos and the Jämsänniemi cape are not huge in size, so you can easily just bike around. If you want to check out possible routes, here are some opinions. With eFatbikes you can also cycle in forests, the wide hiking trails of Northern Himos or the more challenging forest trails of Paljakka.
