Viserum is home to Dackestupet, a cycling area with trails for young and old. Set on Dackestupet's slalom hill, the park offers a surprising amount of elevation for those inclined to seek it out. At the top of the hill, you’ll find parking, fireplaces and other facilities, and a skills park. The trail starts here and weaves about 8km through the park. The elevation profile is challenging, as you’d expect of a slalom hill. But you might just forget about the effort while you check out the incredible views of Lake Viserum.

The Karstorp recreation area in Västervik has technical and fast trails designed to challenge and thrill. The woody terrain disguises the hills, slopes, and other fun features for cyclists. Plus, you can hone your technique on the pump track at the start of the route.

If you’ve got anything left in the tank after your ride, try your hand at the tough obstacle course on the OCR track or leave it all at the outdoor gym or running track. Though, we’re sure that the 18km of Västervik’s best bike paths will leave you happy - as will the region’s famous fair weather in summer.

A scenic outdoor area called Långehäll sits on the edge of Blomstermåla. In it, you’ll find treasure in the form of incredible cycling trails. Beginners and kids can practice on the easier trails, while experienced riders will find joy in the challenges offered by the trickier trails. Technical obstacles and features like jumps, ramps, berms, and drops can be found throughout the park.
Parking facilities, water bottle refilling stations, and hoses for cleaning muddy bikes are all available at the trailhead. While fireplaces with cooking facilities and wind shelters can be found throughout the park. With more than 45km of trails to explore, Långehäll is bound to keep you busy!

The Målerås cycling area can be found just to the south of the road leading into town. It’s best to park in Målerås and follow the marked bike path along the short route to the trails. There are three short but not-so-sweet trails to choose from. They’re intense trails, best described as technical XC, so be prepared for demanding cycling and some messy conditions.
You’re probably going to leave the MTB area sweaty. We recommend bringing swimming gear so you can take a dip at the nearby Långegöl. It’s just 300m west of the entrance to Målerås and changing rooms and toilets are open seasonally. Plus, a few hiking trails start at the swimming spot. They’re well worth a look if you have any energy left after exploring the 8km of cycling paths.
Alternatively, you can follow the signs along gravel roads to the enchanting town of Kosta.

The large Svartbäcksmåla recreation area is just outside Nybro. It has trails suited to anyone from recreational cyclists through to experienced riders in search of a challenge. Speed down steep trails while taking in beautiful views or relax as you cycle through airy forests. There’s plenty to discover - including tranquil pine forests and old spruces, just like those portrayed by John Bauer.
The area is well-equipped, so you can plan to spend the entire day exploring. Cook your lunch at one of the many outdoor fireplaces. Or, if eating outdoors isn’t for you, head to one of the restaurants in nearby Nybro after you’ve worked up an appetite. There are change rooms, rest areas, toilets, and an outdoor gym in the carpark. With almost 30 km of trails, technical downhill runs, and a pump track on-site, there really is something for everyone at Svartbäcksmåla.

In the northern part of Vimmerby, near Astrid Lindgren’s World, you’ll find cycling trails that offer enjoyable riding and outstanding views. The terrain on the more difficult routes is amongst the most challenging in the region, so you can expect tough climbs and to leave the area feeling a sense of achievement. There are four trails of varying difficulty for you to enjoy and a cheeky BMX area for you to play on or to use for some warm-up laps. The easiest path is perfect for beginners and children. It makes way to the more challenging path, suited to experienced riders. One of the more challenging trails shares stretches with the course for Novemberkåsan – Sweden’s toughest Enduro race. Are you up for the challenge?
