Onkilahden outdoor gym

Onkilahden Park features a high-quality outdoor gym with equipment and apparatuses to suit many tastes.

The outdoor gym features David’s high-quality Finnish outdoor gym equipment, hurdles, street workout rigs, a barbell for weightlifting, and a 50-metre running track.

All outdoor gym equipment has on-site instructions. In addition, the signs include a QR code that links to more detailed information about the ways the equipment can be used.

Some equipment has weights that are not suitable for children and can, if used incorrectly, even cause injuries to small children.

Artificial turf and lighting

The outdoor gym’s LED lighting utilises smart technology. When the area’s lighting turns on, it operates normally at 10 percent power. A user of the outdoor gym can activate the lights to full power from a button located in the area.
