Getting out on a mountain bike is more than just bicycling. You can bike to places where every normal bike would quit. In our shop you can rent high quality bikes from Gary Fisher.

 

 

Fishing on Salmon or Trout? The Ekshärad area is perfect for it. Once cached and cooked your own Trout, you will never want it any other way.
