Things to do during the Christmas holidays in Tuusula
The eagerly awaited school Christmas holidays are almost here. Take a look at our tips for enjoying them!
Winter exercise in all weather conditions
Although the weather conditions this Christmas seem to prevent outdoor skating, it is still possible to enjoy skating during public skating sessions at ice rinks. During Christmas week and the school Christmas holidays, public skating sessions are available in both Hyrylä and Kellokoski.
See the calendar for Hyrylä public skating sessions without sticks:

Kellokoski has also added extra public skating sessions during the Christmas holidays. Take a look at the public skating session times:
This winter, we have already been able to ski on the first snow trail at the Hyrylä Sports Centre, but variable and wet weather conditions are challenging the maintenance of the trails. If we get frost, the first snow trail can be reopened to skiers with the help of artificial snow. The situation changes frequently, so please check the current trail conditions:
Even if traditional winter activities such as snow games and sledding are not possible this Christmas holiday, there are still many other ways to enjoy the outdoors. Local forests, nature and outdoor recreation areas, and nearby sports facilities offer activities and hiking opportunities in all weathers!
Things to do in libraries and museums
Tuusula libraries also offer reading enjoyment during the Christmas holidays. Come and browse for holiday reading or take part in events!
Please check the detailed opening hours of libraries during Christmas and New Year:
Halosenniemi will be open from 26 December after a short Christmas break. The exhibition Maalle kauvaksi pois (Far Away from Home) will be on display until 25 January. There are various activities for children, including a treasure hunt and a crossword puzzle. Step into the world of paintings in this rugged, red-roofed studio home!
