Nice technical trail bike ride on the remains of a historic trail along the river
This is a great option for a short evening ride on the day of your arrival. The trail is mostly technical, with some sections that are quite challenging. However, the views of the river and the surrounding forest are worth the effort.
Tour description
The tour starts at Høyfjellstunet. Follow the road eastwards and turn right onto the footpath at the driving range/Segalstad seats. Cross Skeisvegen and cycle down to the first crossing in Fjellandsbyen. Turn right at the intersection and left down the light trail. Follow the light trail down to the large open space at the first bend. There the path goes straight ahead into the forest. Follow this down along the river past Helgafossen waterfall. Down at the treatment plant, you follow the road that goes straight towards the top of Skeikampen. Keep left onto the path at the edge of the forest and follow this back to Fjellandsbyen. Remember to close the gates. Follow the road straight ahead through Fjellandsbyen until you are back at the junction at the entrance.
