TET FINLAND: Offroad ride through Lapland to Niekka Mountain on the Trans Euro Trail // EPS 15
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.พ. 2021
- Explore the remote roads of the Trans Euro Trail Finland: Join one of my favorite days of riding of this journey - through endless forests and one of the last wild places in Europe.
Many other motorcyclists told me that the roads in Finland will be boring and straight. They said that Norway and Sweden are better destinations to travel. But Koilliskaira, the north east wilderness area in Lapland proved them all wrong.
We started off our day with at a gas station in the town Vuotso - the last chance of getting petrol before hitting the TET Finland!
The roads were perfect - but soon I realized, that there are some serious dangers when riding off-road in Lappland… Reindeer!
For a short stretch the TET Finland follows a paved road along the Lokka Resevoire. It is one of the largest reservoirs in the EU, and was created by by damming and flooding at the end of the 1960s.
We arrived at what felt like the middle of nowhere: at Kairiver, the Kairijoki wilderness center. Kairijoki has a campsite, cabins and a cafe. But we stopped here not to stay - but to meet my friend Jani who would guide us up Niekka mountain - one of the highest places in Finland accessible on a gravel road!
I have to admit that the ride to Niekka was one of my highlights - but as well our little stops in Suvanto with buildings in the old lappish style, in Luosto, the famous skiing area in Lapland and at the lakes of Kitinen were worth the ride.
If you want to enjoy the most beautiful part of the Trans Euro Trail in Finland: This video is for you!

You have found your falling. The filming of Norway and Finland are just great. Thank you so much.🇺🇸
Thank you for watching! ☺️
Nice to see my home country from other motorcyclists point of view :) Thank you for making me more grateful for our "boring long gravel roads"
Hope you had a nice time here!
See you on the road
I didn’t find them boring at all! Super peaceful! ☺️😍
Thank you for showing Finland in such a good light.
Thanks to Finland and its people that were just amazing!
Beautifful. Thanks a lot Lea
How wonderful was that!! Just so peaceful , I'd love to sit and fish in that lake, in today's overcrowded world the tranquility would be like food for the soul! well done Lea (and partners) on another fabulous film.
Me too - we really regretted that we didn’t have any camping gear with us because there it would just have been amazing...
Hello friend
Your adventurous and beautiful motorcycle exploration trip gives me great healing.
Have a happy day.
👍👍👍🤙🤙🤙👌
Your episodes are just like a motorcycle ride, at every turn there is new beauty to discover. Another stunning video and great delivery.
Loosely gravel roads look difficult you all did so well . The cloud reflects so magnificently in the water wow . Thanks for another epic video 👍👍👍👍👍👍😃
Yes the clouds - when I see the video now I think it’s like a Photoshop background because it looks so pretty! But promise it’s real! 😂
amazing video. Makes me wanna go on an adventure
Finland is a developed and prosperous country with high standard of living. Funny that ppl from other countries do not know that. Thank you showing the real Finland!
Thank you so much for this super TÊT trip.
I am impatient seeing next episod
very remote and wonderful to share the trip with other capable travelers.
Yani is very good looking, smart, adventurous, and funny. Oh!! If only I were 50 years younger. LOL!! Great ride and beautiful country!!!! Thank you again! God Bless and protect you!
Simply wonderful, thank you! I'm heading to Nordkapp & Lapland in '25 and this has been so inspirational.
Another wonderful video. Thank you so much - and thank you for the beautiful choice of music.
Hi.. Another great video.. beautifully done. 👍
Watched and liked of course! Fantastic landscape. The drone footage really shines in those remote area! Excellent video editing as always.
Thank you Bjørn! ☺️
Love the road up the mountain.
Beautiful scenery you filmed in Finland.
This is on my bucket list to. The more I see your channel. The more I want to leave for that adventure.
Stay safe.
It’s a really good one for the bucket list! Finland and its people are just great. Loved every second there!
Another fantastic video. Very enjoyable and beautiful photography. Can’t wait for the next one. 👍
Thank you so much!
Lea, another magnificent video, incredible roads, lakes and reindeer, the top of the mountain, the mirrored clouds over the lake. All spectacular. Thank you.
And thank you for being part of the journey! 🙏🏻
I absolutely love your series!
Thank you, that makes me happy! ☺️
More delightful venture into the wonderland of Lapland. You take us to places we shall visit but your presentation makes us feel we are actually riding with you. Thank you Lea.
And thank you for joining the little adventure! ☺️
Enjoyed that very much, and great music.........I downloaded much of it. Thanks!
very cool ride, enjoy it as much as you can
Another epic episode. Thank you for taking us with you on your journey.
Thank you for joining!
I found you in Arkansas where I live. I started watching your channel at the beginning in Africa. This is my favorite so far. Can't wait to get your book!
Amazing and untouch. Every riders dream to conquer such off road trail. Thanks for bringing such content for us. All d best👍 From INDIA 🇮🇳
Fantastic filming, editing and everything else! This is helping me hugely with planning my trip for next year. I'm looking forward to it already!! Thanks very much!
I am still in love with Finland. Thanks for sharing. Now i have to wait for another 7 looooong days.
I am in love with it too! Thanks for watching!
auch diese Episode ist herrlich. Prima Schnitt, keine Sekunde langweilig. Macht Lust auf die nächste Folge und läßt mich weiter hoffen, dass wir bald wieder das tun können, was wir lieben: Einspurig Reisen.
Ja, lass uns für uns alle die Daumen drücken, dass wir auch 2021 ein paar schöne Gegenden erkunden können! 🙏🏻
Stunning landscapes don't have to be dramatic fjords, towering mountains, crashing waterfalls. You've captured the tranquility and remoteness beautifully (and the fascinating geological features - I have a bit of a soft spot for geology...!) Thanks
I think that was thanks to our great friend Jani who was able to tell us so many interesting things about all the surroundings. It’s so great to have someone with you who knows the area and tells you about it. Usually I am just like: „oh that looks interesting“ and then I forget about it again 😂
Fast unglaublich, dass man in dieser Ecke Europas die schönsten Landschaften finden kann. Vielen Dank, dass Sie uns auf Ihre Schulter genommen haben, um all diese Schönheit zu erleben. Das einzige Problem ist, dass wir eine ganze Woche auf den nächsten warten müssen. Die einzige Lösung besteht darin, dieses und frühere Videos erneut anzusehen. ;)
Ich schaue ja ganz gerne die Videos aus Westafrika an - und träume von Schweiß und Hitze 😂
@@Got2Go Ich schaue mir diese Videos auch gerne an, aber in meinen Träumen geht es hauptsächlich um etwas anderes ...;)
I start watching and it seems like in the blink of an eye it's over. Your episodes are so entertaining, I look forward to each one.
Thank you for this nice compliment - makes me super happy! ☺️
Everythyng is beautifful, evento the drl blinking of the bike ♥️
Another incredible video, what beautiful scenery. Thanks, Lea!
Thank you for taking part in the journey!
A beautiful video.
Thank you for sharing your life.
Very nice video, ride safe. Maybe one day I will see it for my own eyes.
Absolutely stunning. I love watching your videos and this was one of the best.
Thank you - it was as well one of my favorite parts of the journey! 😍
Hi JohnR! The road following Teno river from Karigasniemi to Utsjoki is beutiful. Also check out the old postal road of Alta in Norway. Cycled them last summer. They are really worth seeing!
Stunning landscapes.fantastic places.and in those scenary the amazing amazon😉😉even on off road😉. I think that place is like tudra ,even in winter must be amazing. Keep ride safe.🇫🇮😍
Yes I really want to visit in winter now and go on a snowmobile 😍
Amazing, It never disappoints and it just keeps on giving motivation and inspiration, thank you Lea!! 👍👍
Thank you ☺️
Lovely Lapland!. That’s my sort of trail riding, endless wilderness and big sky. Oh, and the odd cute reindeer. Wouldn’t want to hit one though.
Thanks Lea.
Me neither - but they are soooo cute! Haha, even though we saw so many I still can’t get enough of them.
Another great film - well done and tganks for sharing your adventure and riding so proficiently on that loose surface on that borrowed gsa monster!
She was really not doing bad! I have to admit I liked her more and more the longer i drove with her. BUT: I still prefer my Tenere 😩
Well Lea did the episode live up to your promises.......absolutely 👍. Amazing scenery, incredible riding roads and as always your fantastic filming and editing! It also look liked the GS "big boat" did ok on the rough stuff. Already looking forward to seeing what your asked Santa for Christmas next week 😍. Ride safe ✌🇬🇧
Yes the big boat was behaving quite well. Was happy about that. But have to admit I still prefer my Tenere off-road 😍😍
@@Got2Go yes I can see why....much lighter and the 21" front wheel is ideal, similar to the 850gs I ride 👍
Yes, really makes a huge difference off-road to have the bigger front wheel!
Video de gran belleza paisajes maravillosos y deseando ver el próximo y que no se acabe
Unfortunately straight roads are the shortest connection between A and B. Luckily the TET makes them exciting enough to drive. Thanks again for beautiful scenery!
That day we kind of went in a circle anyways - even though the roads might look more straight. The TET is amazing, such a great project!
Wow, such landscapes... just amazing. Looking forward to next episode. I can hardly wait
Thank you! Great that you are a part of this journey!
@@Got2Go i like "riding" with you 😀
Stunning scenery - great video. Thank you. 👍👌
Thank you for watching! ☺️
Got2Go Thank you for the beautiful images you give us. We wait for the next and the next and the next!!!
Thank you so much! ☺️
Your level of respect for the local landowners is off the charts! I will like and subscribe immediately I cannot wait to see your further adventures
Leah,you do such a good job with your videos,very professional and showing us such beautiful landscapes,thank you for all your effort to take us with you,cheers from down under
Thank you for watching Steve! ☺️
Lea, I look forward to seeing your videos every Thursday and am always sort when they end. Finland looks amazing. Thanks once again. Cheers, 🏍😀🇨🇦
But the good thing is; there will always come a next one! Hello to Canada!
Hi Lea. Greetings from Oz. Some great riding on the TET. The reindeer are as dangerous to motorcyclists as our kangaroos ! Thank you for the adventure.
Yes they are the same - always running/jumping on the road when you don’t expect them (have to admit though that I was sooo excited about every kangaroo I saw in Australia... )
thank you lea the special bike picture way worth it !!
simply magnificent video
Super, freue mich für dich und hoffe, ich kann auch bald wieder starten.😊
Drucke Daumen!
Dankeeeee!
Freue mich auch über likes und abos😉
Thank you Lea for this beautifull episode again. Just like the past weeks thursday 19u30 I0m sitting relax in my chair with a drink and a snack to watch and also learn something more about the places you visit.
Thank you for watching every Thursday - and encouraging me to keep this channel updated with your comments. Means a lot to me! 🙏🏻
Such a great video. Awesome footage, interesting narration and great balance of real sounds and music.
Really like your videos. Informative and relaxed.
Very good advertising for Finnish tourism services without the companies' own advertising! Thank you!
Exploring Finland on gravel roads is totaly 👌
Hope to see more of that
It is! Unfortunately we will head to Sweden soon - but there will come more gravel and more scenic places too! ☺️
Sorry im abit late... But hello Finland.. Looking beautiful, love the forests and the off road looks great.
No, you are never too late to the party! Thanks for joining the ride!
Lea and friends thank you for your efforts making this video tour, worth every minute of your time , we are so happy to see these places and superb roads you all rode, till next time, ride safe and stay safe, D x
Thank you so much for watching and your nice comment! ☺️
استمتعت جدا
Lea I thought your adventure couldn't get any better until you uploaded this episode.....👏
Oh, thank you! But Finland was really a highlight! 😍
Always enjoy your videos. Beautiful scenery!
Thank you! 😁
With a year of limited riding / COVID..restrictions...this brings BIG smiles...motivation...and as usual ...great scenery.......history lesson..and importantly entertainment.....STAY SAFE
Thank you so much! I miss riding too so I am always happy when editing. I hope we will all have a better 2021 (not so easy for traveling still though 😒)
@@Got2Go I agree..NOT easy to ride with restrictions....... Now THURSDAY my favourite day..lol STAY SAFE
Thank you. See you next Thursday then! 😊
Such an amazing adventure you are having. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t envious of you getting to experience such beautiful scenery, such wide open spaces and learning about the local culture and special places to go. I look forward to what comes next. Stay safe
Thank you, I am still so greatful that we did this journey. Feels surreal these days with all the lockdowns. 😔
Thank you for the lovely Video so nice out there as all way's .
Maybe even a bit nicer than always. I loved Finland so much! 😍 🏍
Amazing!!! Absolutely stunning and what a ride, love to be there
Thank you for joining! 🙏🏻
Beautiful place you visited, good shots and video. Keep going. There is so much to see in every country, I will try to show some places in Finland...when the spring comes.
That would be great! I think there are so many places to see - and whenever I visit a country i never see enough of it unfortunately 😒
Verry god as always. This clipps are making the winter a little bit shorter.. Thanks.
Thank you! ☺️
Hallo, gerade bei den sehr kalten Winterwetter zur Zeit in NRW, ist dein Video, wie ein warmer Ofen für mich😀.
Mach bitte weiter so.
Danke, ich vertreibe mir so auch die Zeit bis wir wieder selbst fahren können! Durchhalten!
Excellent video...nice filming and scenery. Look forward to seeing more! Cheers, Steve
Thank you, Steve! 🙏🏻
Excellent as always...
well done film, really nice:)
Thank you!
What an awesome video, the tet was amazing as was the drone footage. I'm looking forward to the next video. Very well done Lea keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for this nice comment! ☺️
Thank you for a great episode. I drove the same leg of the TET Finland in september, but unfortunately I did not make a stop at Niekka mountain. It was getting dark and had to find a campsite. It was really nice to watch your video, looking forward to next episode.
Thanks for charing, I long for the spring!!
Me too. Can’t wait 🏍
Travelling the world on a motorbike is a little life.
The scandinavian roads are awesome.
👍
Very good advertising for Finnish tourism services without the companies' own advertising! Thank you!
I've visited Lapland many times but never knew about this TET project, pretty amazing and beautiful roads!
You kept your promise. the video really shows landscapes and a beautiful road to ride motorcycles. In the beginning, the road of sand and loose stones is very reminiscent of the roads of the Patagonia region, in Argentina. There, they call this type of flooring a "rípio". Only with the difference that there are many more stones there and the wind from the extreme south of the American continent hurls the bike in all directions, which makes riding very dangerous.
Thank you for another beautiful adventure.
Thank you for watching!
I have ridden all of these places on my world trip - the wind was really crazy! I remember that very well. Had to take care on which side to put the motorcycle on the sidestand so it doesn’t get blown off. 😂
Moto Queen Lea the Great looking over her Finnish riding reign👍! And only these amazing clouds in the lake👏! Brilliant riding episode nicely showing Finland’s special beauty & features😍! Gute deutsche Wertarbeit, thank you and i'm so looking forward to your next episode 😋😊!!!
Haha, love the „deutsche Wertarbeit“ - but it was only so good because of the stunning landscape in Finland. 😍 thanks for watching and commenting again! ☺️
As usual, amazing episode 👏👏 and loved landscaping 🥰👌👌👌
Thank you! ☺️
yet another great video! i was enjoying seeing the wildlife!! it was good to see how much you enjoyed your friend being with you on the one! hopefully off camera you gave him a hug lol, i could tell you wanted to!......
No hugs for the Finns - they like to keep their distance! (Will do next time we meet, we really tried to keep a distance due to corona this time to not put anyone in danger...)
Nice ride, thanks for not bullshiting us and pretending that you rode to the edge of the mountain. ❤️ Beautiful
😂😂😂
Took two people to put the bike there.
Wow! I went to Finnish Lapland to meet Santa with my son just before the first lockdown. I adored it. I cannot wait to go back and explore more, such a beautiful place 💗
It is! You will enjoy it a lot! 😍
Very nice video, especially the off-road part. Keep it up! 👍
Yes that was my favorite too. So nice to finally see some gravel!
Always enjoy your content. Keep Up The Good Work!
Thank you!
Fantastic scenery and Dusty roads, Has it's beauty spots though. Soooòo vast. Very nice
Yes, vast and empty and just super beautiful! I love this kind of landscape!
Great video! And awesome filming of the beautiful scenery! Even as a Finn I always thought other countries offer better experiences for motorcycling, but after riding the complete TET last summer, I realized I had been wrong all the time. We live in gravel rider’s heaven! This section was also my favourite! Let’s see where you ride in the next episode! 👍
Yes I loved it so much (and I have to admit I as well love the Finnish mentality and people - so it’s a pretty nice Package...). Next episode we are unfortunately already traveling to Sweden...
Great journey may God blessed you.
Love the video
Thank you!
Awesome!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 - so well done. Now we know how to call reindeer too 😉
Yes, that’s like reindeer language. Trust me, it works! 😂😂😂😂
Wieder ein tolles interessantes Video. Ich finde es toll, dass du recherchiert und somit etwas Kultur mit rein arbeitest. War wieder toll den Teil anzusehen. 👍👍
Diesmal hatte ich ja zum Glück Jani mit dabei, der mir die Recherche abgenommen hat (Informationen von den Einheimischen sind dann doch etwas verlässlicher als mein angelesenes Halbwissen 😂)
I am just kidding of course I have a woman here in the United States I love dearly. I am just joking trying to be silly and express how cool you are for sharing this amazing adventure with us. Bless you and long travels
Lea, I am very envious. So good you are able to travel. Weather looked great, loved the scenery, beautiful lake with clouds, reindeer and of course the drone shots. Well done. Safe travels.
Unfortunately that trip was already a bit ago - at the moment I am in lockdown too dreaming of traveling.
@@Got2Go Oh yes, I see that now! Thought it was more recent than last summer. Oh well, nice adventure, anyhow. Your English is superb and much appreciated. Take care.
lakes of Kitinen were amazing and even far ahead was the drone footage from Niekka mountain, keep creating amazing videos and keep on travelling, best wishes for your journey!!
Thank you! ☺️
That is a fantastic view out there. That is well worth a visit when in Finland.
Definitely one for the bucket list!
