🚴‍♂️ Bikepacking Finland – Day 2: Mäntsälä to Pulkkilanharju 🌻🌊

Описание: Day two of our bikepacking adventure brought some unforgettable moments… and a few challenges!

Starting from Mäntsälä, I packed up my gear and headed northeast, covering another 95 kilometers despite starting to feel some knee pain.
The route took me through golden sunflower fields and then onto one of the most beautiful cycling stretches in Finland — the Pulkkilanharju ridge in Päijänne National Park.
Pulkkilanharju is a stunning natural ridge surrounded by lakes on both sides, with a winding road that makes you feel like you’re riding over water.

The warm, sunny weather made the ride even more magical.
In the evening, I found an incredible camping spot at Naumi Beach (Naumin uimaranta) — soft sand, crystal-clear water, and an unforgettable sunset. 🌅
I even foraged a few mushrooms along the way and cooked a simple mushroom pasta for dinner — true bikepacking luxury!

⚡ Note: Some of the original sound from the ride was lost, but I hope the beautiful scenery and peaceful vibes make up for it.
I recorded some new voiceovers to fill in the story!
