Official tracks

In addition to the first-snow trail that can be opened with preserved snow and covered with additional snow and the 5 km, 6,4 km and 10 km trails of the Liikuntapuisto, the city is making trails for the Äänekoski Rantaraiit between Lossi-Satama and Satama-Rantapuisto. In Suolahti, the tracks are made 3,3 km and 5 km to the bottom of Suolahte's Nakertaja, Majala field and Suolahti's sports field, as well as Konginkanga to the kirkonkylä piru track and from there to the Konginkanka sports field of the joint track (a total distance of 3,5 km). Most of these are also illuminated.  

The city also makes smaller block streets in larger agglomerations at the request of schools and kindergartens. These have been done in Katvela, Alkula, Suojarinte, Isollemäki, Piilola, Huuha park, Mikonpuisto and Runebergi park, among others.

In addition, the city supports the renovation of village tracks and ice tracks, e.g. In Sumiais, Koivisto, Hietama (lit), Honkola and Mämmä within the limits allowed by the available funds. Supported items may vary each year. Local operators are responsible for village lanes. Efforts have been made to designate parking areas for village lanes.

Completion of the hiking track depends very much on the winter conditions.
