Wellness coach Riikka Tulppo provides a wide range of exercise and wellbeing services, including individual coaching, camps, and corporate wellness programs.
– Outdoor exercise, trail running, running, cross-country skiing, and forest yoga are particularly close to my heart. I also offer mental coaching as a Life Coach, Tulppo says.
– I’m excited to once again provide trail running coaching for the Kainuu Trail in Hossa next summer. We organized our first coaching program a couple of years ago, and now the timing was perfect for a new course, Tulppo explains.
Kainuu Trail Race Director Jukka Liuha is equally pleased that the collaboration for the 2026 coaching program is moving forward.
– It’s fantastic to be working with Riikka again. We’ve always aimed for Kainuu Trail to be a low-threshold event where almost anyone can find a suitable distance to enjoy the stunning trails of Hossa National Park. This coaching course supports that mission perfectly, Liuha says enthusiastically.
