 _{Byrundan, Green 10 km}

Grade: Green
Length: 10km
Type: MTB, Cyclocross
Character: Easy mix of single-track and forest road, through beautiful woodland.
Trail description: This is the original Rörbäcksnäs loop, which has now been extended. A good fun loop which is a fast and easy mix of single track and forest road, great if you are not feeling up to the longer trails. This trail is a great ride and you might end up doing several laps with energy gained from your first run! The trail starts out on a grassy section along the illuminated track, going downhill and crossing the Siktån stream. A sandy section is followed by a series of jumps and curves. The trail then runs on asphalt before joining an easy single track heading past the Old Homestead, Church and Moose Park. Just before the lake Gorrtjärn you will bike on a narrow section above a ravine. After Gorrtjärn there is a slight climb partly on gravel until you cross Torgåsvägen, then downhill towards Siktån following the east side of Medskogshögen. Turn right onto asphalt/concrete and then back to the school on a nice single track.

_{Kalugapasset, Blue 15 km}

From here you have several kilometers of World Class single track. After crossing Torgåsvägen you head north, crossing Siktån stream to start an awesome ride. You cross over the Elverum road to finish off over Janishögen on a narrow uphill track, with a technical downhill ride ending up on the Vallsjörundan trail and back to the school.
Alternate route: a less technical route heads east of Medskogstjärn shortening the ride by 1km.

_{Vallsjörundan, Red 32 km}

Grade: Red
Length: 32km
Type: MTB, Cyclocross
Character: A fun and varied ride, built to be an absolute world class trail, a mix of single track, forest road and gravel. There are more gravel sections than on Kalugapasset.
Trail description: This ride starts out on a nice single track with a gravel section and connects up with the Main Trail east of the village, continuing to another single track section just before crossing Torgåsvägen. An exciting part of the trail follows alongside Vallsjön lake on a narrow ridge, high above the water. You will hit a technical and rocky section before you end up on the gravel going towards Löten. A single track section follows, connecting up with the Kalugapasset trail. The last section begins with a steep ascent to Kvarnberget, then down to a gravel road taking you to the Elverum road, which you follow until you turn on to a technical section running along the north side of Medskogstjärn.
