Challenge yourself to the most enjoyable trail run of summer 2025 in Finland's southernmost wilderness!

A well-organized and pleasantly relaxed event that even an inexperienced trail runner enjoyed participating in. It's great that events like this are organized in new environments.

Peura Trail is a cheerful, challenging and well-organized trail run. There are fewer deer than elsewhere!

Nice event, challenging terrain even for more experienced runners, wonderful wilderness!

The technical trail provided a challenge. This is why you don't have to go to Lapland to run. It was worth coming from further afield for the event.

A well-organized, enjoyable event. The route challenges me to continue participating. I recommend it.

Beautiful landscapes and rocks from all over Finland can be found on the longest route.

An authentic and relaxed event!

The route was challenging but I felt like a winner when I reached the finish line 😁 Plus the nice name tags where you could put your own nickname 👌🏻

The first trail running event that sparked my interest in the sport. A very strong recommendation for anyone who wants to come and admire the rugged, beautiful landscapes of Suomenselkä.

Choose the challenge that suits you from the versatile route options.

13–17 km Deer hike
6 km Nice Musta
13 km Interesting Kirvesheikki
23 km Cheekless Cheeky
37 km Wild Harjuntakanen
51 km Suunnaton Suurijärvi

In addition to the real Moomin, up to 1,000 participants are expected at the outdoor event for the whole family, which will be held alongside the trail run.

The program includes a campfire kiosk, activity stations, children's trail runs and lots of fun things to do.

The event center is the Petäjämäki outdoor recreation center in Reisjärvi (Rintalantie 88). There is transportation from the event center to the departure points.

In the background of the event

Minna is a wellness entrepreneur who enjoys running.

"The deer trail has also sometimes been known as the poor man's lap. I think a lot of trail runners don't know how great terrain we have here. I hope that as many people as possible will get to experience their beauty this summer."

Ville is an orienteering enthusiastic and CEO of a garden sauna company.

"The idea for the event was developed on the trail running runs in the future competition terrains. I dreamed that others could also enjoy these wonderful wilderness trails. Dreams are now coming true and I'm absolutely nuts!"
