The bridges over Lake Päijänne in the Pulkkilanharju area offer stunning lake views and are part of a popular cycling and driving route between Lahti and Jyväskylä. The arched Käkisalmi bridge, built in 1940, and the later Karinsalmi suspension bridge replaced old ferry connections and now make the narrow ridges of Pulkkilanharju easy to cross. The area is known for its clear waters and island-dotted views, especially along the Pulkkilanharju nature trail. The route is perfect for cyclists with trekking or cross bikes, though expect occasional traffic and be cautious on the narrow road sections.
