Guide and owner of the company Cykel & Salt AB.
“My passion for mountain biking has been with me my whole life. For me it’s magical to be able to take the bike in to the woods, finding the secret spots, best trails and the cliffs warmed up by the sun. It’s luxurious to be able to take a second of silence, listen to the nature and pick some blueberries. Pure joy!
I look forward to be guiding you in the Bike Park! I hope we’ll meet soon, on the bike of course!”

How to dress?
Biking is an intensive activity and you will be sweaty – have clothes you don’t really care too much about. Follow the layer over layer principal and avoid cotton closest to the body. A warming sweater and a rain jacket can be good to have during brakes. If you have shoes with a flat sole, use them. They have the best grip on the pedals! So, rather old converse than running shoes.
Bad weather?
We’ll adapt the course after the weather conditions but we generally don’t cancel if it isn’t suddenly abundantly snow falling.
