Tip! How to get started cycling in Åre

Start in Björnen

If you are new to mountain biking, you can start either in the downhill park or in our trail area. If you feel a little unsure, it may be a good idea to start in the trail area.

In that case, start your ‘mountain biking career’ in Björnen, where you pedal under your own steam but where there are also plenty of fun downhill runs on the trails.

Start in ‘Tändhatten’ (trail 05, green) and then cycle ‘Stubinen’ (trail 06, blue) before continuing on to ‘Graniten’ (trail 07, blue). These trails are good preparation for further cycling in the downhill park.

Move on to the green and blue downhill trails

When you feel ready, there's nothing to stop you from tackling the downhill .

There you will find ‘Serpentinen’ (trail 26, green), which is a nice green trail. The next step is to cycle ‘Lilla Blå’ (trail 28, blue) and then try ‘Double Dave’ (trail 31, blue), ‘Cobra’ (trail 36, blue) and ‘Easy Rider’ (trail 01, blue).

Have fun!

Please note We recommend that you wear a full-face helmet and protective gear when downhill biking.
