Connecting route Merikarvia - Siikainen

Distance 18,4 km
Duration 1h 0min
Easy

The Eurovelo 10 route runs along the west coast of Finland from south to north. There are connecting routes between the Geopark route network and Eurovelo 10 from Merikarvia to Siikainen  and from Lappväärt to Karijoki.  These make it possible to detour from the Eurovelo 10 route to the Geopark area routes or vice versa. This enables the combination of cycling routes so that a bike trip can be carried out, for example, from one railway station to another (Parkano, Pori, and Vaasa). 

The connecting route from Merikarvia to Siikainen is a straightforward west-east oriented route that runs along a light traffic route and a paved road. Along the route in Tuorila, there is a traffic service center beside road 8, including services such as a service station.
