More users on the track this winter than ever before.

Autumn winter weather won. Ensilumenlatu will have to be officially closed tomorrow, Wednesday 19.2 February.

─ The track has frozen really badly in many places, last Wednesday skiing is impossible. If you still plan to go skiing on Tuesday, you should be careful, sport venue master Jani Niittynen says.

They are still trying to keep the shooting bench rough for the shooters for a while.

─ Ensilumenlatu particularly defended its place this year. It guaranteed the skiing enthusiasts of Imatra, and at the same time the whole of South Karelia, the opportunity to practice from mid-October to February, when there were no natural slopes. There were also more biathlon and skiing camps than ever before, CEO of Imatra Base Camp Jukka Aallikko says.

Tickets for the first snow trail have also been sold more than in previous years.

─ About 2000 tickets were sold this season. Exact sales figures will become clear in the near future,
specialist in welfare and education services Harri Valtasola says.
