Hellasgarden

[matt-pl]

Hey!

Sorry that i write in english but my swedish is really weak :D

I brought my enduro bike to Stockholm with me this spring and today i went to Hellasgarden.
I found a trail which is marked with blue dot(i hope someone knows witch trail im writing about) and i really enjoyed it.
My question is: Is there more trails simmilar to this one in Hellasgarden ?
Thanks for help !

Loads! My guess is +1500 km of similar stuff in Hellas.

 

[matt-pl]

I was in the same situation as you a couple of months ago. One site I found extremely useful was opentrailmap.net. If you search for hellasgården you'll see heaps of trails to explore! I downloaded the gpx-files to my phone and used an app called Locus Pro so I could track the trails when out biking.

At "kartbutiken" =mapstore at vasagatan next to central station you can buy a quite good map over the area. I can recommend that.

There is also a ride on the Hellas trails each tuesday that you may consider joining: http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=sv&tl=en&u=http://tisdagsrajd.se/.

It will also be posted in the calendar here on happy soon if history is a good predictor. Or post your own ride here in the forum!

[matt-pl]

All right!
I'll definitely try whichever trail i'll be able to find in Hellas.
Its really great that i can find so many places to ride and i dont have to travel outside the city.
Stockholm rulez !!!

But, as for everyone, please be considerate (? Correct word "hänsynsfull") to others , especially hikers / pedestrians. For the reputation of mtbikers and the future of mtbiking in hellas.

the green 10 km trail starting near hellasgården, isnt biking said to be prohibited there?

A good way to explore Hellas is of course to join the TisdagsRajd, starting at the liftstation at Hammarbybacken each Thusday 18:30.
This time of the year it's normaly 30-60 people going in different groups, depending on skills level... English is no problem.
Otherwise I could recommend practice your swedish by reading "Aron's" book "Mountainbike kring Stockholm" http://www.calazo.se/bocker/mountainbike-kring-stockholm
See U out on the trails // Larsa :)
