Imposing station building, access by elevator. Great interior architecture. Great train connections with free bike transport.

A couple of closed turns and an uphill leading to a jump and a board bridge. This section merges with the access from Skovbrynet (section 22)

Section 17 is meant for downhill flow. Challenge yourself to reach the end without pedalling (and/or braking) to train pumping!

Probably one of the best flow sections in the forest alternating small climbs and flow subsections. Really good grip all over even in wet conditions.

The board bridge in section 29 offers two possible lines. It can be VERY slippery when wet.

This section offers alternative line choices and is a bit more technical than the rest of the trail. Plenty of roots and rocks that can be slippery when wet.

Rooty and rocky area that offers alternative lines.
