Ruska 2025 route will be announced once someone correctly answers the quiz. The hints obviously have plenty of bias towards native Finns, but can with some extra effort be solved by others too.
The #ruska2025quiz hints are published here. The answer still has to be sent in Twitter using #ruska2025quiz. Once someone Tweets the answer with correct start, finish and 3 controls using #ruska2025quiz the route will be announced.
- For a Finn it will be the same whether you finish or not
- The first control is surrounded by water. Just like it once was.
- The second control is the same, but different.
- From the third control you can see something northmost in Finland.
- The final approach to the finish is some 5-6 km of easy gravel.
- The start has burned down.
- The first control parkour is roughly 200 km long and it could be a lot longer, or shorter, but especially longer.
- The second control is an inspiring little tour, but somehow it still feels like a punishment.
- Either before or after the climb and hike to the third control, the participants will have to cover nearly 300 km from or to a another point of interest familiar from a previous Ruska.
- For the finish you will briefly visit something northmost in the world.
- To narrow down possible start locations the next hint is that, as the crow flies, it is more than 15 km to the nearest current VR passenger train station from the start.
- The first control was late to the party and after a era of extraordinary global importance it fell into the dustbins of history.
- While the start, finish, first and third control give you a view to past and present, the second control might just give you a rare view to the future.
