Itinerary
Day 1
Three-hour self-guided e-fat-bike rental from Rovaniemi city centre. Includes fitting, short briefing, recommended routes, and time to explore on your own.
Meet & pick up e-bike (Koskikatu 20)
Meet at the rental point in Rovaniemi city centre to sign rental agreement, receive key/lock, and check the bike battery charge.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 5 minutes early to complete a short paperwork check so your rental starts on time.
- Bring a valid ID used for the rental agreement; store it safely in a small dry pocket during the ride.
- Koskikatu 20 is on the city centre block by the Ounasjoki river; there is limited street parking if you arrive by car.
Safety briefing & bike fitting
Helmet fitting, short operational briefing on e-bike controls and battery range, and selection of suggested routes (city loop or nearby nature trail).
Tips from local experts:
- Ask the staff to set the pedal-assist level you prefer before you start—it's easy to change while riding but quicker to set initially.
- Check tire pressure and brakes during the fitting; report any concern immediately to the rental staff.
- If you plan to ride on gravel or trails, choose a lower assist mode for better battery endurance and control.
Self-guided ride (city and nature routes)
Recommended 2–2.5 hour loop options: a city loop visiting riverside and central sights, or a nature loop heading toward nearby forest trails. Follow provided route notes and return by the agreed time.
Tips from local experts:
- Follow the provided route sheets: for an easy riverside ride, head along the Ounasjoki river; for forest trails, choose marked multi-use trails and avoid skiing tracks.
- Keep the battery level in mind—switch to an eco mode if you plan extra stops or side detours.
- When stopping at cafés or sights in the centre, always use the provided lock and park where bike parking is allowed (do not block sidewalks).
Return bikes & quick check
Return the e-bike, helmet and lock to the pickup point. Staff will inspect the bike and confirm battery condition; final handover and short debrief.
Tips from local experts:
- Return on time to avoid conflicts with the next booking; staff will check the bike and battery for any issues.
- Wipe off visible mud or snow from drivetrain if you rode on trails to help staff inspection.
- Collect any personal items from saddlebags and double-check helmet fit for comfort before handing it back.
