Getting around
Walking & the kick sled (potkukelkka)
Most of Levi village is walkable — paths are cleared and lit in winter, dry in summer. With warm layers and grip-soled boots the cold isn't the obstacle people expect. In fact, walking is one of the loveliest ways to take it all in — through snow-covered trees, soft winter light and the quiet of the Arctic landscape.
In winter, keep an eye out for the kick sled (potkukelkka) — a Finnish stand-on sled you push along packed snow and ice. Many cabins and hotels keep a few for guests to borrow, and they make the short hop to the shop or a neighbour’s cabin genuinely fun. No hire desk needed; ask where you’re staying.
Getting around
The ski bus, shuttles & coaches
Levi’s ski bus runs from late November to mid-April, connecting the village centre with the main residential areas and ski lift centres on a published timetable. It’s an easy way to move between your accommodation, the slopes and the centre without needing to drive.
Larger hotels also run their own shuttles (ask at booking, not on arrival), and scheduled coaches connect Levi with the wider region.

Getting around
The gondolas
Levi’s gondolas are transport as much as sightseeing. The Levi Express links the village with the Panorama area up the fell, and Gondola2000 carries you to the summit — skiers and boarders in winter, hikers and bikers in summer.
It’s the quickest way up the fell without skis on your feet, and the view on the way is the point.
Levi Express Gondola — Link Between Village and Panorama
The Levi Express Gondola is the scenic cabin lift that connects Zero Point in Levi Village with the front slopes near Hotel Levi Panorama and the Summit event centre.

Getting around
Skiing & cross-country
The most Levi way to get around is on skis. Ski-in, ski-out accommodation lets you clip in at the door, drop to the lifts and glide home — no bus, no walk in ski boots.
Beyond the slopes, hundreds of kilometres of cross-country track thread the fell and the forest, linking the resort areas and the village. Rent skis for a few days and the trail network becomes your road map. Book a lesson if it’s new to you.
Levi Ski Resort Ski Passes
Full- and half-day access to all 43 Levi slopes — family area, freestyle park, floodlit evening runs.

The Concierge
Everything on this page is a decision — which bus, whether to hire a car, how to reach a husky farm at eight in the morning with two children and a pushchair. A concierge takes the lot off you: transfers booked, timings that work, and someone in Levi to call when the weather changes them.
Getting around
Fat bikes & bike hire
In winter, fat bikes — with oversized, low-pressure tyres made for snow — are the greatest way to explore Levi’s winter trails and reach areas beyond the village centre without a car. This is how locals get around for short journeys all year.
In summer, mountain and e-bikes open up the gondola downhill trails, the lakeside loops and the Levi Bike Park. Several shops hire by the half-day, day or week, and most will set the bike up for the season and conditions.

Car hire
Useful for trips outside the village — reindeer farms 30+ minutes away, a day trip to Ylläs, anything off the ski-bus route. Less useful inside Levi itself, where almost everything is walkable.
Finnish rental cars come with winter tyres as standard by law from December to March, and desks sit at Kittilä airport and in the village. Peak weeks book out months ahead — reserve as soon as flights are booked.

Taxis & private transfers
For everything else there’s the taxi — a short hop across the village, a late night back from dinner, or a group move when timing matters more than cost. Local firms run a 24-hour rank; book ahead in peak weeks when demand spikes.
A private transfer is someone waiting specifically for you, booked in advance with child seats fitted and a fixed price up front — worth it for late arrivals with tired children or larger groups.
