Vihti Ski Center



This update is from two weeks past. Our benchmarking of sledding hills in Southern Finland time time lead us to Vihti Ski Center, located some 60 kilometers from Mäntsälä.

I'd say this place is best suited (of the three) for kids who are just learning downhill skiing, but the sledding slope was just average. They advertised on the web they have a "magic mat" ski lift, but I think Werneri Park had a much better arrangement with the snow tube tracks.

The order of preference (so far):

1. Talma
2. Messilä
3. Vihti Ski Center

PS. A friend tipped me later that nearby in Otalampi is the Salmi hill (at around 60.376917, 24.501688) which is a "pretty wild" for sledding.. Hmmm, I guess we'll need to check it out at some point.. :)
