Sports and Recreation
Sports Services
The City of Kuhmo’s Sports Services provide a wide range of guided activities for people of all ages and organise sports and recreational events throughout the municipality.
One of the municipality’s key responsibilities is to promote the health and well-being of its residents. Physical activity plays an important role in maintaining health, creating enjoyable experiences, and strengthening the sense of community. Our goal is to support an active lifestyle by providing high-quality sports facilities for residents and local sports clubs. Regular physical activity contributes to the well-being of the entire community.
We maintain and develop a diverse range of sports facilities and, together with local sports clubs and the Sotkamo Adult Education Centre, offer a variety of opportunities to stay active and healthy.
In addition to maintaining sports facilities, we organise guided exercise classes and recreational events across the municipality in cooperation with local sports organisations.
