MTB on Omberg
Omberg is beautifully situated by the shores of Lake Vättern. The flora is very varied and there are lots of flowers in spring time.
The forested hill Omberg is a popular area for outdoor avtivities and there are several hiking trails but not all of them suited for biking.Give way to walkers, be especially careful around the most popular areas around Hjässan, Ellen Key's Strand and Stocklycke.
The tour
This tour is best done clockwise and consists of a mixture of trails (64%), gravel (17%) and tarmac (19%).
There are challanging climbs, fast and fun downhills, lovely views of Lake Vättern and the surrounding plains.
Today we started and ended the loop at Ellen Key's Strand. Other possible starting points are; Ombergs Turisthotell, Stocklycke, Storpissan or Hjässatorget.
Food breaks
If you don't BYO, tehe are lunch and snack possibilities en-route at Ombergs Turishotell and Stocklycke. Close to the trail are Borghamn and Hästholmen.
