Further down you will find a map to the different presented tracks and trails.

At Hallbystugan just by Jönköping Airport you could enjoy the track used during Swedish National XCO Championships 2014 among other well-marked 3-5 km laps. Some trails more technical and physically demanding and other easier for the youngest. There is also a new “pumptrack” to sharpen your bumb-technique. Some built obstacles (as the Wall and King´s Landing) but manly classic Nordic terrain with roots and short ascents but enough to make your legs burn. Distance from Euromtb track: 14 km.

Olsbo – a track that is as flat as it get. But great place to focus on quick turns, start-stop and just keeping your pedals going. The track works for beginners as well as for speed hunters, close to Hallbystugan. Distance from Euromtb track: 17 km.

Torsvik Quarry – Probably the most technical demanding track, short power ascents, stones and roots, no room for hesitation. Short descent from the top of the quarry. Singel track all the way. Distance from Euromtb track: 15 km.

Huskvarna Mountain – of course this is the where you will find the European Championship track. Used for competitions for a long time, nationals in 2007. Nice view, a lot of climbing. If you want to explore Huskvarna you might find some trails at Stensholm and also down town Huskvarna at Bråneryd you will find a small pump track. Here´s some footage from one race this season at Huskvarnaberget.

Vista – This track is used during Vista Mountain said to be the oldest mountainbike races in Sweden. A pretty short lap but with a flow “to-die-for” and definitely worth a visit. And while at it pay a visit to Smålands “Toscana”, great coffee, apples and more. Distance from Euromtb track: 5 km.

Tenhult SOK – This small village that is the Captial of Caravans and home of sponsor KABE. Mixed trails on a 6 km lap, fairly easy riding. Distance from Euromtb track: 8 km.

Vattenledningsparken – is located not far from the center of Jönköping and just by top football team J-Södras training facility Odensberg. Many small trails to explore and some nice views. To continue to explore we suggest you find your way towards Tokarp by the old train track and visit Hassafall and the woods surrounding Hovslätt. Distance from Euromtb track: 10 km.

If you want to go a bit further you might visit Mullsjö were you will find a shorter MTB-track here just by Friluftshotellet. Easier riding. We could also recommend a visit to Isaberg that hosted 2015 years national championships. Over 10 different trails for MTB including a very nice XCO-track. Distance from Euromtb track: 70 km.

But as you know one of the great aspects of mountainbiking is finding new trails on your own. Just get out there! Be adviced some areas and hiker trails are not to be used for biking, such as the area Strömsbergsskogen and Johan Bauer hike trail that starts at Huskvarna Mountain. Remember to show consideration to others enjoying the “wild” and we will live in peace.

The surroundings of Jönköping and Huskvarna gives great opportunities for cycling, some of the best in Sweden we would say, for mountainbike entusiasts as well as road cycling. Several mountainbike XCO-tracks/courses are being kept and you will find some great trails as well. Will give you a short introduction. And if you visit us before the championship, get in touch and we will get you a local guide.
