A family cycling day in Saimaa Central Park, right in the centre of Mikkeli
In Mikkeli, a nice family cycling day can be spent in the countryside near the city centre, exploring the sights along the route. Start at Kenkävero, just 1.4 km from Mikkeli Market. You can enjoy a delicious breakfast or lunch at Kenkävero or the adjacent Mikkel Park restaurant. Kenkävero's lush green gardens and Mikkelipuisto's artful plantings are worth enjoying for a little longer in the summer.
