Active Family Life Keeps on Bouncing – Trampolining Offers Versatile Fitness Training and Quality Time Together

At Kainuu Orienteering Week, families come together to orienteer, stay active, and enjoy nature. However, an active lifestyle is not limited to checkpoints and forests—the best routines are built into everyday life at home. One of the most effective, fun, and versatile ways to keep the whole family moving can be found surprisingly close by: right in your own backyard.

Trampolining has quickly become a staple for active Finnish families, and for good reason. It’s not just a pastime for children, but an excellent form of cross-training and fitness for movers of all ages.

Coordination, Balance, and Core Control in Your Backyard

Orienteering requires excellent balance, quick reflexes, and strong core stability as the terrain changes in an instant. Jumping on a trampoline develops these exact qualities. The constantly changing surface engages deep muscles and improves joint alignment and coordination almost without noticing.

For many endurance athletes, a trampoline also offers a great, low-impact way to do aerobic and coordination training. Best of all, it is an activity for the whole family to share, providing screen-free quality time and a fun way to release energy together.

“We are particularly excited to bring trampolining to yet another new sport. Trampolining is not only fun, it is also a fantastic way to get the whole family moving and exercising together,” says Riia Huttunen, Digital Marketing & Sales Director at ACON.

Quality and Safety at the Core – Partnership Between Kainuu O-Week and ACON

Since an active family puts equipment through heavy use, there is no room for compromise when it comes to quality. This year, Kainuu Orienteering Week has entered into a two-year partnership (2026–2027) with the Finnish trampoline expert, ACON.

ACON trampolines are known for their premium bounce, durability, and, above all, safety. ACON's flagship models are designed to withstand harsh Nordic weather conditions year after year, making them a long-lasting investment in family well-being.

“We want to offer O-Week visitors, families, children, and youth the best possible program outside of the orienteering courses as well. ACON trampolines are a perfect addition to our competition centre, bringing movement and entertainment to the youngest family members, teenagers, and why not adults too, in a brand-new way,” explains Jukka Liuha, Secretary General of Kainuu Orienteering Week.

Thanks to this partnership, you can test high-quality ACON trampolines right at Kainuu O-Week! The trampoline on the competition centre side is free of charge and open for all visitors—both children and adults. In addition, the youngest members of the family can enjoy jumping safely at the Muksula childcare point, where specific trampolines are reserved for the children in childcare.

Come and try what a perfect bounce feels like, and let the joy of movement take flight between your race days!
