If you’re looking for a little history and culture on two wheels, Alf is your man! Based in Sjötorp where the Göta Canal meets Lake Vänern, Alf can take you on a cycle tour along the canal to check out the boats and the locks and to give you some of the history of this magnificent feat of civil engineering. Alternatively, you could go for a tour through the forest or head out to the sandy beaches on the car-free island of Brommö.
You can bring your own bike, or bikes are available for hire in Sjötorp.

For some MTB fun close to the city, Daniel can take you on a trail to suit your experience. He is still finding new trails after 26 years of exploring the area around the city and can match a route to the type of cycling you want to do. He can even fit in a cultural stop or some fika on the way.
You do need to have previous experience of cycling on trails, and you will also need a bicycle, water bottle and helmet.
