E-bikes for trail cycling, or eMTB if you prefer, are fantastic tools for fun in the forest and mountains. We offer short and long trips, as well as rental of electric mountain bikes.
Join us for a full day's ELECTRIC mountain biking experience on the best trails and gravel roads in the Alta Valley. The level can easily be adapted to make this tour suitable for everyone!
We are looking forward to a whole weekend of mountain biking summed up by three words:
FJORD – MOUNTAIN – FLOW
Electric or analogue MTB - you are equally welcome!
We rent out Trek and Scott E-MTBs. These solid, full suspension, 29 inch bikes with 150 mm travel rear and 160 mm travel front are perfect for our conditions.
Treat yourself to a feel-good package including an overnight stay in an Aurora Canvas Dome, e-MTB day trip including lunch, three-course dinner and sauna. Time and life will pass at precisely the same rate, which makes this a relaxing experience!
Join us for a three-day mountain biking adventure in the Alta Valley and on the Finnmarksvidda mountain plateau. This is the perfect trip for active groups or friends or families wishing to create great memories together on the bike seat in the nature.
Six wonderful days including five unforgettable days of mountain biking in Finnmark! You will enjoy long days combining technical challenges with rolling flow paths in a varied and beautiful landscape. Even though the days are long, you will always have time to appreciate the surrounding nature including rivers and lakes, glaciers and fjords, cloudberries, the Midnight Sun and reindeer!
A brilliant, long day trip from mountain to fjord, where we start at lake Jotkavann on the Finnmarksvidda mountain plateau and bike all the way down to Glød HQ in the Alta Valley.
E-Mountain Biking
Electric trail bikes have spread like wildfire throughout the cycling world, and more and more cyclists are coming out of the forest and down the mountain on one of these with an extra wide smile.
An electric trail bike has a powerful electric motor in addition to all the features of an advanced mountain bike.
An electric mountain bike (e-MTB) has several advantages, making it a popular choice for recreational and serious cyclists alike. Here are some of the advantages, starting with perhaps the most important one first:
The social aspect: e-MTBs make it easier to ride together with friends or family who have different fitness or skill levels because everyone can adapt the level of assistance to match their own ability.
Other advantages:
Increased range: The electric motor provides additional power, making it easier to ride longer distances without getting exhausted. This is especially useful in hilly terrain.
Improved handling in steep terrain: The extra assistance from the motor makes it easier to tackle steep climbs and technical trails that might be challenging on a regular mountain bike.
Reduced strain on the body: The electric motor reduces the strain on knees, hips and the back, which can be a major benefit for anyone with physical limitations or wishing to minimise the risk of injury.
More fun: Many people find it more fun to cycle with electric assistance because they can focus more on the experience and less on the physical effort.
Versatility: e-MTBs can be used for a wide range of activities, from easy mountain biking to more demanding trails, offering the user greater flexibility.
Assistance in headwinds and challenging terrain: If you are riding into strong headwinds or across uneven terrain, the motor provides the extra power needed to maintain speed and comfort.
Adjustable motor assistance: Many e-MTBs have settings that allow you to adjust the level of assistance, making it possible to choose between a light workout and a more intensive training session.
Environmentally friendly transport: e-MTBs are a sustainable alternative to driving and can contribute to reducing your carbon footprint.
More training opportunities: An e-MTB enables you to vary the intensity of your workouts, from easy rides to demanding exercise, which can provide motivation and contribute to better overall health.
These advantages make e-MTBs an attractive choice for many people, regardless of where you are a novice or an experienced cyclist.
