Fjørå Replayed - Video

Mar 2, 2012 at 12:52
by Jon Bokrantz  
Deep in Norway's Sunnmøre fjords is the small village of Fjørå. Over the centuries local farmers have cleared trails up and down the steep mountainsides. Today, those trails challenge technical mountainbikers who descend to the rocky shore from over 3,600 feet above sea level. This is singletrack heaven in Norway. Endless ancient farming trials on the steep mountain sides above the deep fjords makes this place a true mecca for mountain biking. As a tribute to this special place, Norrøna has named their collection of singletrack mountain biking gear after Fjørå. To get a glimpse of this unique area we give you Fjørå Replayed - a short film that portrays the spirit of the land.

 The local trails are amazing, this one is fairly known and easy to find for travellers. As is evident from the imagery, the trail cannot take much more use, or more aggressive use, than it does today. When a trail gets ridden in rain it shows, and we get a fair amount of rain here.... travellers beware. Also, did I mention the price for accomodation?

Luckily there are still quite a few hidden gems only known to those who spend some time finding and maintaining trails. If you travel here, get in touch with the local riders. x

 Cannot take much more use?!?! That trail is ripe and ready for some good riding. Most likely some of the best natural drainage known to man. Sick trails!

 Love this video about my fifth time watching it. So excited to go to Norway in April but unfortunately not for biking and in the high arctic. I will again want to travel there to bike because that scenery is amazing and Fjora looks like a great place to be.
