Winter cycling and sauna in peaceful nature

There is something special about cold, beautiful winter days. Nature has changed its shape and the colors appear in a calmer color scale. The low-lying sun breaks through a haze of clouds and the air is fresh. It is a special experience to go out with the bike in winter. The weather and temperature can change, but the winter landscape inspires a sense of calm. A calm that we may need more than ever.

This bike package suits you who want to experience the sparkling Nordic climate by bike. You cycle on a dirt road with elements of asphalt and the package includes outdoor grilling over an open fire, the possibility of a cold bath with a warming sauna and really good food. Among other things, you can enjoy the "Bauermeny" - an experience meal inspired by magical forests. In the evening you sleep well in comfortable beds at Hotel Bauergården in idyllic Bunn, between Gränna and Jönköping. You need to be moderately fit, remember to dress warmly and be prepared for changes in the weather. Welcome to a sparkling, steaming and warming cycling experience by Vättern's shore!

Today's route takes you along magical rolling country roads, past barns and manor houses. Long downhills and short uphills. The first bit goes straight towards Lake Vättern down the gently sloping road out of Bunn. Minimal traffic, wonderfully curvy and no too tough slopes. After 10.5 km you cross the main road to Gränna, be careful there. You pass Flättinge Gårdscafé (check the opening hours in winter). Explore the magical nature, stop and enjoy local delicacies. The hotel packs a basket with a hearty wrap with Småland ice cube tray, local apple drink and of course hot and delicious coffee & cake.
In the evening, a fantastic dining experience awaits: the Bauer menu. Enjoy carefully selected local produce with hints of game and magical mist. A three-course menu you will remember!
