Bicycle friendly Bikeland destination in Finland_Merikoivula

Bicycle friendly cottage

MERIKOIVULA WELCOMES BICYCLISTS!

Since 2024 we became bicycle friendly Bikeland destination as bicycling in the Archipelago has became more and more popular. Keeping bikers in mind, we made reservations for one night possible in the cottages, and so far there is only one specially equipped cottage. When booking, please mention that you are a cyclist, so we can take it into account.

As a bicycle friendly Bikeland destination, there are washing hoses and tools according to Bikeland.FI requirements, as well as washing equipment and an extension cord for charging the electric bike. A sturdy loop hook is attached to the lower beam of the terrace for locking the bike. You need tools, please contact us and we will help you.

The nearest bike repair shop is Ugin Pyörä and there are two bike rental companies: VisitUusikaupunki and Santtioranta Camping.

The distance to Eurovelo route EV10 is 17 km and The Archipelago’s Trail is 27 km, but of course there are other cycling routes, such as Velhoveden Rengastie(Round trail). It’s easy to filter “Pedestrian and bicycle paths” on the Uusikaupunki map.

The nearest grocery store is located in the center of Lokalahti, K-Market Lokalahti.
