Koskikatu

Highlight • Settlement

Koskikatu is the main street in the center of Rovaniemi and is the main shopping street as well as a central business center. The road also serves as an important road link from the center towards the Korkalovaara district. Along Koskikatu are the Revontuli, Rinteenkulma and Sampokeskus shopping centers, as well as several tourism companies. Part of the street is a pedestrian zone and at Christmas time the pedestrian zone is illuminated for Christmas.

Kemijoki Riverside Path

Highlight • Trail

Whether in autumn with fog, in winter with snow, in spring when it finally gets light again, or in summer at midnight with the pale light - the river exudes a beautiful magic and is a magnet for runners, walkers, and cyclists in every season =) You'll always meet like-minded people here.
Between the lumberjack bridge on one side and the railway bridge on the other =)
