Telefonløypa

Description

A classic! This is an occasionally challenging enduro with both fast and technical sections. Starting down a stone pile from Haus Sachsen. Many people choose to roll this part, as it is easy to get a puncture. A trip over the board here will also be uncomfortable.

It then follows a relatively wide section of path, and joins the Kemnerlløypa (ski track in winter) for a short distance. It is often wet here, and there can be muddy sections even though much has been beaten. After a small climb, the path begins to flow downwards. It is narrow and technical, in some places it opens up on a swath with exciting off-camber lines, drops and high speed before it becomes narrow again. Be aware that some of the sections on the rock can become slippery. The last part before you get out into the Ollebakkene can be technically difficult, as line selection is important. Feel free to familiarize yourself with the path by rolling up, or take it easy for the first time.

Be aware of oncoming walkers, and feel free to follow the Ollebakken all the way down to the ski centre.
