It is recommended that the GPS is set to select the fastest route and any avoidance turned off for the route to be calculated as described.

Route 2 is a great all-day route for exercisers and perhaps best suited as a training session for the pros.

The route is hilly and fun to drive, offering approx.
800 meters of altitude in 107 km.
So you’re guaranteed to get a good workout.
The route has a nice warm-up stage down to Steane where you get a good climb up to the top before descending into a beautiful and idyllic valley before reaching Grova.
From here you drive through the beautiful valley in slightly hilly and winding terrain down to Bostrak where you turn right onto the Fv358 towards Gautefall and Treungen.
In Bostrak you can visit Sputnik, he has his own small museum there with some simple catering as well.
From Bostrak and up to Gautefall, you can enjoy varied and nice driving in some hilly and winding terrain before reaching Gautefall.
From Gautefall, the descent to Treungen starts.
There is a section here where you can reach quite high speeds.
But remember that you don’t want to “win anything” on this trip, so “SAFETY FIRST”.
In Treungen, it’s a good idea to stop for a waffle and a cup of coffee before pedaling the last 40 km back to Straand Hotel in Vrådal.
The final stage along the Nisser is nothing short of beautiful and, depending on your pace, you’ll be able to wash the climbing meters and kilometers out of your legs so that you’re ready for the next day’s stage. Have a good trip!
