Please enjoy this short silent biking & hiking movie about my adventure in Hallingskarvet National Park (Norway) with some awesome mountain views. This was for me one of the best days of mountain biking/hiking in Norway. Why? I had some big plans for September 2023, but I got really sick and I had to cancel my planned 3 weeks of holidays. I spent two weeks in bed and on antibiotics. I was so disappointed and sad, but in need of some compensation, I did a little research and found this mountain called Prestholtskarvet. It is above Geilo, which is reachable from Oslo by train or bus, and as weather forecast was great, I did a last minute decision, packed my bike and left for two days to Geilo. I had to go, even though I was still finishing my antibiotics, because I realised that this might have been my last summer trip in Norway as I already knew that I was going to move to Belgium at the end of the year. I am very happy that I went there. It was indeed one of the best days spent in Norwegian mountains and I was completely alone there.
I also like to think that I am the first, who attempted to do this, or at least documented it as I didn’t find any similar videos from there.
Because I liked this trip so much, I tried to do the same journey in winter with my husky. But this adventure is for an another video.
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING 🙂
That day I biked/hiked 42 km and gained 1,520m of elevation.

PS: I am sorry for the night downhill biking footage quality. Temperature dropped below 0 °C and I was already quite tired, so I messed up my GoPro camera settings. It is quite shaky and grainy/noisy and I think it is most noticeable on larger screens 🙁
I will do better next time…
