Tohloppi is a district of Tampere, Finland.[1] It is located in western part of Tampere, about seven kilometers from the city center near the Tesomajärvi district. The other neighboring parts of the district also are Ikuri, Lamminpää, Epilänharju and Ristimäki.[1] There is also a lake by the same name (which is part of the Lake Pyhäjärvi basin) in the district with one island called the Tohloppi Island (Tohlopinsaari).[2]

Yleisradio's office on the shores of Lake Tohloppi, which produces a large proportion of Yle TV2's broadcasts, is often said to be located in Tohloppi.[3] However, the office is located in the Ristimäki district, although on the shores of Lake Tohloppi.[4] In 2016, the Tesoma's sports hall was completed in the district, which is used by, among others, the basketball club Raholan Pyrkivä.[5] Tohloppi also has a nature trail for hikers and joggers.[6][7]
