15.6km|566m ◢ ◣ 601m|22.08.2017

Description

Trip to the steep path Galten 497m with a pushbike 300 meters in height, a test before technique training down a fantastic but steep path `30 degrees in places' with a high risk of OTB!

Access

Started from the golf club Sigerfjord and cycled up to the light trail that continues under Rv85, follow the path/forest road all the way to the marsh at the end of the Kjerringsdalsvannet, after the 3rd cabin there is a nice path with a springboard that comes to a forest road with a bridge over Sørkleivelva, take over Rv85 and follow the signposted path/forest road up the slope to Galten but cycle past the 2nd signpost and take both up and down following the path at Galtbekken. Return to Sigerfjord following Rv85 to the path at the Blåheia/Kollen parking lot on the left and follow these paths/roads back.
