REGULAR: BIKE RENTAL IN BALESTRAND OF NORWAY SOGNEFJORD
Sporty, forward-leaning GT bike with disc brakes and for a technical, sweaty workout around the scenic Esefjorden Drop-In also from 10-15:00. Self guiding. B2C only.
NOTE: ONLY Drop-In rental possible from June - September at 10:00-15:00. Experiencing Balestrand, away from mass tourism gives you a sense of freedom and inspiration. Real joy when you find a stylish motif that you can share with friends. Travel history. Enjoy unique motifs along the Heritage Trail. Dragon Style Houses. Architectural little lungs where you can gain energy. If one person wants a light workout to Dragsvik, for example, you rent 2 bicycles: 1 regular and 1 electric bicycle and this way it will be enjoyable for both.
GO FARTHER. GO FASTER. GO SLOW. REASONS TO GO?
Take a trip to the other side of Balestrand. To Dragsvik. A little traffic on the road, but a world of beautiful nature. With a side mirror, you see what’s coming behind you. Make a stop. Flowers along the roadside. The feeling of mastery.
Stop at the white church and see if you can find the grave of Margaret Sophia Green, the founder of the St. Olaf Church (Frozen Church). It is located under the large tree in front of the church door and has a tall, RED tower-like tombstone with gold lettering.
Visit the Enamel Workshop. Look for the road sign on the left and go up a hill. Put your bike in 1st gear and pedal to the end of the road. Here you will find two friendly jewelers in their workshop. You will also find many birds in the surrounding forest.
At Lunde, on the lower side of the road with many tall trees and a white house. It’s an old rectory, with Northern Europe’s tallest Monkey-tale Tree and freely walking hens, chickens and a proud rooster.
Sit on the quay and dangle your legs and enjoy the silence. Buy a sandwich and some snacks. Life is wonderful with a fjord view!
Or cycle to Menes, the end point of the 3 fjord ride. The choice is yours. The Sognefjord is full of undiscovered opportunities. Discover them. Use them!
And you: Remember to lock your bike when you leave it, wear a helmet. For safety’s sake.
