There are places in Tuusula and the neighbouring municipalities where you can stop for a barbecue, a meal or a cup of coffee. However, please remember to check the opening hours of the various destinations. There is no admission fee for the Kellokoski Hospital Museum and Aleksis Kivi’s death cottage, but please check the admission fees for other destinations.

The cycling map, produced in collaboration between Tuusula, Järvenpää and Kerava, shows the municipalities’ light traffic routes. In addition to cycling routes, the map also marks places of interest and useful destinations for cyclists, culture lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.

You can use the maps found in the yellow box on your mobile device in PDF format or print them out at home for your own use. The orienteering destinations have also been added to Google Maps.
