Cycle and stop at charming cafes and farms with self-produced food.
This bike tour starts from Örsundsbro, which is located between Uppsala and Enköping, along low-traffic roads with good road standards (mainly asphalt). Here you will find yourself in a vibrant countryside with an exciting history, great nature experiences and budding small businesses.
You cycle and make small stops at charming cafés and farms with home-produced food. Along the way, you enjoy the fertile, varied cultural landscape from the saddle of your bike. The name Fjärdhundraland comes from the medieval Fjädhundraland, which was a so-called folkland, a land area that had its own law and a lawman. Those who enjoy history can find many nice excursion destinations in the area.
Opening hours among cafes and farm shops may vary during the off-season. It is a rural environment and much to be done on the farms, but it is a fantastic bike ride even though it is not open everywhere.
The app is a practical way to follow day rides on your phone, save favorites and use selected membership features.
The bike tour starts in Örsundsbro, just north of central Enköping.
The next stop on the culinary journey is Resta, a few kilometers up the road.
Just south of Nysätra is the next stage destination, which is Landsberga farm. Here you will find a café and a farm shop.
Härkeberga church is beautifully situated. There are well-preserved frescoes by the church painter Albertus Pictor.
The last stop on the journey before returning to Örsundsbro is Kromsta lantbod.
At Salnecke Castle Café you eat and have a good coffee in a cozy environment. From Örsundsbro you can cycle the Mälardalsleden south down to Bålsta where there is a commuter train. If you are attentive and use a good bicycle map, you can get from Uppsala to Örsundsbro via the old railway embankment. However, it is important to show consideration for landowners, and as I said, it is important to be on the map.
Get a taste of the route in a short, playful cycling game. Follow the bends, take on the hills and discover places along the way.
