Feel the Peak – Pyhä Scenic lift for pedestrians

The PyhäExpress scenic lift is accessible for both cyclists and pedestrians. During the lift ride, you can admire the panoramic views of the fell. The lift, designed for six people, slows down at both the lower and upper stations, making boarding effortless. Staff are available to provide assistance and guidance as needed.

If you prefer, you can take the lift to the summit and then return by lift after enjoying the views, or alternatively, hike back down the trail. The scenic lift operates according to the PyhäExpress opening hours. Pedestrian lift tickets can be purchased from ticket machines or ticket sales points.

As part of the peak experiences, there's the mystical Huttu-Ukko art trail. Located in the immediate vicinity of the PyhäExpress lift and Restaurant Tsokka, the art trail was created in collaboration with local artist Tapio Uusitalo. The artworks along the trail are inspired by the area's history, myths, and beliefs.

The execution of the artworks takes into account the different seasons. In winter, the artworks are covered in hoarfrost, creating a magical white glow, until the spring sun melts the snow and reveals the artworks to the viewers once again.

The landscape platform at the top of Pyhä offers open views of the surrounding nature and the Pyhä-Luosto National Park. On the platform railing, you will also find a panoramic photo in which the most notable landmarks visible from the top are marked.

Starting from the summit, Pyhä Flow is the most scenic downhill route in the area, offering a fun ride for both experienced riders and beginners.
This three-part trail is open during the operating hours of the scenic lift, and tickets can be bought easily from the webshop. We recommend using a downhill-suitable bike and appropriate protective gear.

Pyhä Dreams is a unique accommodation and wine bar located at the top of the fell, known for its intimate and warm atmosphere. It offers a memorable experience in the heart of nature and tranquillity, combining the rugged beauty of northern wilderness with modern comfort.

The wine bar features high-quality wines from Europe’s most renowned wine regions, with most available by the glass — a perfect way to discover new favorites. The bar can also be reserved for private use by your own group.

At Restaurant Tsokka, you can enjoy a delightful treat or savor a delicious lunch in the midst of outdoor activities. The spacious terrace invites you to sit back, relax, and admire the fell landscape.

The Scenic hut is located at the top of Pyhä, a few hundred meters from the top station of PyhäExpress. This atmospheric hut's large windows offer views over the Pyhä-Luosto National Park and towards the fells stretching to Luosto. Breathe for a while in the warmth of the hut. If you wish, you can cook a long meal on the fireplace and enjoy your meal sheltered from the wind.

As you descend halfway from the summit, you'll encounter the rugged cliffs of Tajukangas and its timeless atmosphere. Here, you'll find Rock Adventure Park Pyhäkuru, a fireplace, a hut, restroom facilities, and a stage where magnificent artists bring life to various events and festivals, such as Pyhä Unplugged and Pyhä Sana.

Pyhä's Feel the Peak experience is also suitable for people with reduced mobility, especially during the summer season. Between the Rental shop Alavuokraamo and the restaurant Hööri, there are parking spaces for persons with disabilities. There is only a short transition to the PyhäExpress chairlift, which you can enter with a lightweight wheelchair.

Toilets for the disabled are available in the lower Rental Shop, Restaurant Hööri, and the nature center Naava.
