Project description:

Ylläs is one of the leading year-round destinations in Lapland. Allegra has been a partner in the development of mountain biking in the Ylläs region since 2022. The work began with a comprehensive development, conception and master plan, which also included cooperation with tour operators and the media.

In the summer of 2023, Allegra designed and built the Ylläs Flow mountain bike trail on behalf of Ylläs Ski Resort, which received an overwhelmingly positive response. As a follow-up, the Ylläs Air Flow trail will be built in Ylläs in the summer of 2024 through the work of Allegra.
