White Trail – Simlångsdalen

Beginning at Simlångsgården, at the far end of the valley, the white trail is a wilderness experience. You get to ride through some amazing forests on at least 60% single track over a 13km distance. This trail seems remote from Halmstad, but during the explosion of ever-growing crowds of people discovering the wilderness for theirContinue reading “White Trail – Simlångsdalen”
