Woodland riding and bike skills on an island in Lake Mälaren
On the island of Björnö in Västerås, you’ll find the Björnen mountain bike trail, a family-friendly route with many fun features. The three-kilometer-long trail is rated blue (moderately easy) but includes side trails and features rated red (moderately difficult). Björnen is easy to ride but still technical, which makes it quite physically demanding.
The trail consists of two parts, one part is one kilometer long and the other two, which makes it possible to combine the two parts at will. The track start is at the track center at the large car park where the other exercise tracks and the hiking trail start (note that there is a bicycle ban in the exercise tracks and on the hiking trail). The bear is clearly signposted and can also be cycled in the dark because the signs are fluorescent.
