In the beginning of the season, cross-country skiers can enjoy skiing on the 5.6 km-long artificial “first snow” trail, which is free for users. As more snow comes, 230 km of cross-country skiing trails are waiting for all skiers. Levi's broad fell area has slopes for everyone from easy ones for beginners and medium-difficult ones for the more experienced. Altogether 45 slopes of which 13 are illuminated and 13 with an artificial snow system, 21 lifts including Finland's only gondola, 6 children's slopes, half pipes and 8 slope restaurants are some of the reasons that make Levi the most popular ski resort in Lapland.
