Skærsjøensti

Description

Great trail! But you need to work for the flow.

As you can see in the height profile, the trail tends to go downhill, but there are lot's of short climbs. Some of them are a bit tricky, but with a good technique and some power in your legs it is possible to get up.

The downhills and the flat parts are very nice and flowy. Nevertheless the trail is not easy to ride and you need to work your bike all the time and ride good lines to keep the momentum and the flow.

The ground is compact, and except a few spots, it seems to be little susceptible to water. There is good dirt, a few roots, rocks and some nice rock slabs.

The first part looks like it is not ridden very often and could need more traffic to stay clear. In the main downhill part from the Aklangen lake you can see a few bike tracks, the trail is wider and less overgrown.

Access

Easy gravel road from Tyristrand. A shorter possibility is from Ask up to the Aklangen or Engelen lake.
