The original program has been adapted (so that we cycled in the opposite direction) so that we could keep just those dates that suited us; and it also required the change of an overnight stay that the organizer has fixed in consultation with us. Thus, a big thank you for some flexibility regarding the arrangement itself! All accommodation was fine. The area is perfect for such a bike ride, and the day program allows you to alternate cycling with some hiking in Tiveden if you want (so we did).

Lovely cycling experience and nice to have luggage sent between accommodations.

Very nice turn, thank you PerOlofsgården for it. You can have your husband with you as a service car. Worked well for me. And then you can go sightseeing on the days in between. All accommodations were great. Nice reception, great food. I give PerOlofsgården the highest rating!!
July 2021, Lena S.
A fantastically well organized week, and we were also very lucky with the weather. We only got a few raindrops on us during the cycling. The best was the reception at the three accommodations we visited, Perolofsgården, Hallagården and Hamgården. We ate the best food at Perolofsgården and Hamgården, where a three-course dinner was served. The breakfast was also good. At Hallagården, we were also given the freedom to have breakfast as early or as late as we wanted, as we got to pick out what we wanted from a well-stocked fridge. A cycling holiday well worth recommending. Lena, Torbjörn, Anette and Rune.

Wonderful, relaxing holiday with lots of exercise! Good treatment in all places. The concept of two nights in each place is perfect. You can rest, exercise or be a tourist on weekdays. Transporting luggage is worth a lot. We found the package under MTB package. There were MTB trails in two of the places. Between the places, it is the road that counts. However, got a code for the app that suggested smaller forest roads if you set it on MTB. You should have your own map or enough battery for the phone if you want to take smaller routes between overnight stays. Works otherwise well with a regular bike as well.
