Kick sledge or walking to Linnansaari

The weather forecast for today is +3-6 degrees (with strong wind gusts in the afternoon) and more water has risen on the ice. We recommend kick sledges or walking from Oravi via Savonselkä lake hut to Linnansaari, it would be good to have waterproof boots (and when walking even sticks). It is now better to use a kick sledge on the snowmobile trail rather than on the ploughed skating route, since the surface ice is not strong enough. In the afternoon it is likely that the surface ice softens even more when the temperatures rise. It is not possible to go skating today. Oravi's equipment rental and shop-café are open from 9-17, soup lunch available from 11-15. Linnansaari café is not open today.
