There are ski slopes with artificial snowmaking in the Oitta region of Espoo and in Hakunila in Vantaa. At the weekend, a five-hundred-meter track also opened in the metropolitan area of Paloheynia.

- The skis glided well. I rode in a classic style, the snow did not stick and did not crumble, - in turn, comments Nicholas Vardi.
Mirkos Kienanen, who is responsible for the state of the track, notes that according to forecasts, the coming weeks will be especially warm, which will affect artificial skiing.
