The Green Gold Gravel Loop is a 333km and 4-to-6-day loop trail on gravel roads in the northern part of Central Finland. It combines the villages, services, nature sites, and beaches of the northwest Lakelandvia old and new forest roads as it passes by the historic salmon rapids of Huopana, the national park of Salamajärvi, and the protected areas of old forest around Lake Kuivajärvi as a contrast to the forest industry otherwise present along the way.
The route starts in Viitasaari where it alternates between paved and gravel roads as it heads to the Huopanankoski rapids that played a major role in the birth and development of Finnish fly-fishing culture.
Route type: Long Distance Circular
