Lugnåsberget invites you to enjoy peaceful cycling tours on mostly gravel roads with little traffic. The distances are short, and our cycling package will provide you with many delightful nature experiences and new hidden gems.
At Lugnåsberget, cycling is both enjoyable and easy. It’s just 5 km to the forest lake Vristulven and the large forest there. You can discover both an ancient fort, a robber’s dwelling, and a wolf pit.
The package is suitable for spring, summer, and autumn, as it is equally wonderful year-round. In spring, nature awakens with the scents of ramson, bird cherry, and lilac, while wood anemones bloom in the hills. In autumn, nature offers spectacular color displays and crisp air, making the wood-fired sauna a perfect way to end the day.
The package is ideal for both those who want to cycle nearby on gravel roads and for those who wish to cycle longer distances. There are many lovely cycling routes in the area.
