Korkeakangas-MTB

Korkeakangas-MTB is a mountain bike event held at Korkeakangas in Valkeakoski. This location functions as both a bike park and a former ski resort. While the exact timing isn't specified, the riding area is designed for downhill, enduro, XC, and trail riding. The event is organized by VlkMTB, the Valkeakoski Mountain Bike Club, which also constructs and maintains the mountain bike trails. The hill offers a 156-meter summit with 62 meters of elevation difference, suitable for racing. Participants can utilize two downhill trails and one enduro trail. DH3 features berms and jumps, DH2 has a more enduro-oriented character, and Enduro1 crosses south of the summit through rocky terrain and forest. The jump lines in the lower bike park may be altered annually, but Enduro1, DH2, and DH3 remain largely consistent. Korkeakangas also hosts numerous XC and trail routes, winter ski tracks, and an 18-hole disc golf course, positioning the race within a broader outdoor sports environment.
