Description

The top of three ridges in the same hillside. A nice animal track that runs along the edge of a moraine ridge has been cleared for a walk/cycle path. Very nice flow the whole trail apart from a small steep technical section of 10 metres. Nice to tie this together with "Blod Svette og Oel" afterwards.

EDIT 2017: Due to construction work in the area, parts of this have been torn away. Will be restored when the work is over.

Access

From the road to Nilsebu there is a hiking trail to Grautheller. Push the bike up this a bit. You will pass a tree that has fallen over the path, then you will have a steep uphill before it flattens out a bit. Here you see a path that goes up to the right from the main path, you can sense here that there is a ridge the path follows, this ridge becomes clearer as time goes on. In the middle of the ridge is a high-voltage mast, look for this if necessary to inform you of when to turn right to find the path. Follow this ridge until the trail ends. Cycle down the same way you went up. When you reach Grauthellerstien, cross this and continue straight ahead on a slightly less obvious path. Follow this one. Here comes a steep part which can be cycled but which you may want to walk depending on your level. The path turns back to the Grautheller path. Then follow this down to the road again or take a straight left before the road over to "Blood sweat and tears".
