Day 1 - Hoverberget and Storsjöbygden
After arrival and check-in at Wikners in Persåsen, the first day of cycling in beautiful Jämtland nature awaits. The tour goes on quiet gravel roads and forest trails through a varied landscape with views of Lake Storsjön and the surrounding mountains.
Along the way there are several nice stops. Take a dip in Lake Storsjön, enjoy food, drink and summer atmosphere at Hamncaféet or stop by Kossans Café & Gårdsmejeri for homemade ice cream and local delicacies.
The highlight of the day is Hoverberget, where you can choose to cycle around the mountain or go up to the top. Here awaits one of Jämtland's most magnificent views of Storsjöbygden. At the top there is also Café Toppstugan for those who want to take a break and enjoy the view before heading back to Persåsen.
Day 2 - Gräftåvallen and the foot of Oviksfjällen
After breakfast, pack your lunch and head out on a longer hike through forests, open landscapes and along sparkling rivers. Today's destination is Gräftåvallen, beautifully situated at the foot of Oviksfjällen.
The cycling is mainly on small roads through peaceful nature, with several nice places for breaks along the way. You pass lakes with swimming opportunities, babbling brooks and rushing waterfalls that contribute to the special feeling of mountain wilderness. There are many scenic places to sit down and enjoy a packed lunch. Once at Gräftåvallen, those who want to leave the bike for a while can take a short hike up the mountain to experience the magnificent view of the mountains and forest landscape.
Day 3 - Breakfast and Homeward Journey
After a good breakfast, it's time to round off your stay. Perhaps you will have time for a short morning walk or a moment on the veranda before starting the journey home.
We hope that the days in Storsjöbygden have given you great nature experiences, new energy and many wonderful memories to take home.
