Can anyone Recommend MountainBike Trails in Norway?

[LouMan]

I have some mates here in Sweden from Australia and New Zealand who are going on a Mountain Bike holiday to Norway. They would like to find some medium level trails to go touring on. Can any one recommend any areas to ride?

I've heard Skeikampen has some good trails, have not been there myself though.

I just got back from a bike trip to Stryn, the nature was awesome but the riding was unfortunately not up to the same standards in my opinion.

anyway, as TnT said, terrengsykkel should be the best place to start looking

Hi LouMan,
I actually just came back from a cycling trip in Norway, but in the other hand we are not very mutch into touring, but. If you going to Norway then http://www.rallarvegen.no/default.asp?sprak=3 is the shit. I haven’t ridden it but it seems to be pretty nice especially after I have got to know the mountains there a bit. Definitely worth to check out. By the way what do you mean with touring and trails? And what is medium for you?

"Trails" I mean single track that is marked for Mountain Bikes.
"Touring" Is a ride which is more than one day, so you will have some gear in a back pack, but no panniers etc
"Medium" is a ride you can take your girlfriend on and you can show off abit, but not so hard that she will never go riding with you ever again ;)
Seriously I think as they are on holiday and girl friend is present they will be riding more sceneic type trails.

Thanks for the recommended web sites, they look good, I will forward them on.

Well, the combination trails, touring, medium might be a bit tricky to find, but http://www.skeikampen.com/ have lots of nice single-track some of them hard some medium, with decent scenic views. I really loved those trails :) you should also check out Rondane national park http://terrengsykkel.no/img.php?d=magasin/utflukt/rondane04&id=1276. Don’t really know much about it but it is very scenic and should be ridable.

Hejsan,
Kommer själv ifrån australien (Brisbane, me har bott här i 5 år). Ska upp och cykla i Rondane nationalpark ifrån hytt till hytt i augusti. De får gärna mail mig för tips. Vi ska också cykla i jämtland på vägen ditt.
