Description

Follow me on a sunny ride starting at the serene Rykenefossen waterfall. We roll into dense, green forest and onto peaceful winding roads, alternating between gravel and smooth asphalt. The route takes a beautiful turn onto the old railway line—now a hidden gem of a cycling trail—offering quiet nature and gentle terrain perfect for immersive movement. Along the way, you’ll feel the shift from the open roads into a more intimate woodland path, with brief glimpses of the rocky outcrops near Fjæreheia, known for its dramatic quarry amphitheater used in summer concerts.

This workout is the first of a two part adventure. Keep up the momentum with part 2: 🚴‍♂️Ride Through History & Nature - Dømmesmoen Trails to Øyestad Church
