WHAT IS THE WELCOME CYCLIST -PROGRAM?

The Welcome Cyclist -program is designed to make life easier for bike travellers looking for useful services. Bike-friendly companies welcome bike travellers even when muddy, providing them with safe bike storage, pumps and basic tools, a charging point, and information about routes, services and bike services in the area. You can identify bike-friendly businesses on the go using the Welcome Cyclist -badge.

 

Companies with the label also access the Bikeland map and benefit from the joint marketing of Finnish bike tourism. The sign is free for businesses and can be applied to accommodation services, restaurant or cafés, bike rental, bike services, tourist attractions, buses, taxis and bike ferries and ships. We welcome you to join the Welcome Cyclist network!
