Ylläs, Finland – September 18, 2024

Ylläs Bike Park is announcing its victory as Bike Park of the Year 2024 in Finland, following the success of its top-tier flow trails. Built in close collaboration with the trail design experts at Allegra, especially with our trail lead Craig Brickser, Ylläs Flow and Ylläs Air Flow have taken the Finnish biking scene by storm with their seamless riding experience.

"The world's best experts have been sought for the job, and the result is accordingly impressive. The new trails are undoubtedly among the top in Finland and stand up to international comparison." The selection process involved a lot of input from users, and the feedback from the Ylläs area was flattering.

Want to ride the best flow in Finland?

The Ylläs trails, particularly Ylläs Flow (opened 2023) and Ylläs Air Flow (opened 2024), are designed to provide an unparalleled biking experience, combining the perfect balance of flow, jumps, and thrilling elements for all skill levels. While Ylläs Flow caters to a broad audience, Ylläs Air Flow adds a touch of challenge for riders seeking that extra edge.

"Designing award-winning trails requires a strong partnership, and that's exactly what we achieved with Ylläs Bike Park,”, said Mikko Saarinen, Managing Director of Allegra Nordics. "Together, we’ve developed Finland’s top flow trails, ensuring that riders get the highest-quality biking experience possible. We congratulate Ylläs and couldn’t be more excited about this recognition."

A proven partnership

The collaboration between Allegra and Ylläs has proven to be a resounding success, setting a new benchmark for trail design in Finland. These trails not only attract avid bikers but also set a new standard for what biking enthusiasts and new riders can expect when visiting a bike park in Finland.

And what's in store for the future? Ylläs Bike Park is successful and looks forward to further innovation and collaboration with ALLEGRA. We are excited about the 2025 season and the exciting new developments that we will bring to Lapland together with our partners. Stay tuned!
