Are you ready to trade your hiking boots for maximum freedom on two wheels? Mountain biking in Björkliden is the ultimate way to experience the Arctic wilderness. Here, you set the pace entirely on your own—whether you want to cruise along the historic Rallarvägen or challenge yourself on rugged mountain trails.
When you rent a mountain bike from us, you’ll get the key to your very own mountain adventure. You won’t have to worry about fitting in with schedules or groups; it’s just you, your bike, and the endless views of Torneträsk and Lapporten. Pedal up to a hidden stream for a refreshing dip, pack a thermos of coffee in your backpack and find your own favorite rock, or feel the adrenaline rush down the magical downhill trails.
We have bikes that are perfect for both epic full-day rides and quick evening rides under the midnight sun.
We offer reliable and well-cushioned mountain bikes that are optimized for trails.

Three cycling tips straight from the saddle:
-
Rallarvägen (Easy/Moderate): Cycle along the old supply road used by the railroad builders. A fantastic, historic route that offers lush birch forests, bridges over roaring streams, and beautiful views.
-
Crater Lake (Moderate/Tough): For those who enjoy steep climbs and technical cycling. The reward on the plateau—with its mirror-smooth water and Lapporten in the background—is unbeatable.
-
The Midnight Sun Tour (Magical): Rent a bike for the evening and pedal out into the endless, golden light. The mountains are never as quiet and beautiful as they are in the middle of the night.

About Activities
Good to know
Each activity has a level of difficulty described below. We always adapt the pace to the group to ensure everyone has a great experience.
Relaxing: this is not exhausting at all, on the contrary!
Slow pace: Can be compared to a light walk. As a participant, you can often adapt the effort to your own level.
Moderate: This level of exertion requires a little more from you as a participant. At this level, it is more often a matter of endurance rather than great physical effort, but we recommend a normal level of fitness.
Demanding: This level often requires both willpower and higher physical fitness. We recommend that you talk to our knowledgeable staff in the sports shop if you are unsure.
Quite a challenge: This level requires a lot from you as a participant. You should be both strong and confident behind the brow bone - at this level we will always ensure your suitability before completing the activity.
