The ice route on Lake Tuusula will be closed for this season
Official maintenance of the Tuusulanjärvi ice route, including route marking and upkeep, will cease this winter season on Friday 13 March 2026.
The official 2025–2026 season for the Tuusulanjärvi ice route has now come to an end. The ice route was open for around nine weeks, during which time an estimated 100,000 or more outdoor enthusiasts enjoyed the lake’s beauty, the chance to get out and about, and the chance to meet others on the ice.
Although the official monitoring season is coming to an end, the Ice Observers (Jäähavaintomiehet) will continue to monitor ice conditions and provide updates on ice safety. You can follow the latest information and guidance on the Jäähavaintomiehet’s channels and on the Tuusula municipal website.
Remember to stay safe when walking on ice
The ice will remain safe to walk on for a while longer, so you can enjoy the outdoors on the ice provided you take care. As the route is no longer officially maintained, please always check the ice thickness yourself before venturing out onto it.
Ice conditions can change very quickly, so it is important to exercise personal responsibility whenever you go out onto the ice. Make sure you have ice picks with you, only go out onto the ice with a friend, and keep a close eye on your surroundings whilst moving around on the ice.
We would like to thank everyone who visited the trail this season and look forward to welcoming you back next winter!
