TET Sweden with RE Himalayan 411

#motorcycleadventure #royalenfieldhimalayan #transeurotrail
The Trans Euro Trail (TET) Sweden is a wonderful track if you like to ride dirt roads and enjoy the nature. The roads are mostly gravel, a very few tractor roads and some green lanes. In between you are led into cities and villages, to fill petrol and shop what you need. In this video I ride the track with a Royal Enfield Himalayan 411. You may also do it with a larger adventure bike with some suitable tires. If you are lucky you will encounter reindeers along the track. And maybe a bear. Ridden summer 2024.

If you don’t know what Trans Euro Trail is for anything, just go to the transotrail.org website. From that website, you may download files to put into your G GPS unit to follow trails uh all over Europe. Also in Sweden and Norway, there are such trails uh which you may follow. So here in this uh video I will show you the Swedish version of the Trans Euro Trail. We will start at uh the Norwegian Swedish baller quite short in Sweden at Stoton Oura in Norwegian and up to Yokmok and from Yokmok up to Mu in Finland. So I will show you a lot of uh the trails in Sweden. you will get an impression of the difficult difficulty and how it looks. I was very lucky with the weather all the time. It was not raining. If it’s raining, the trail may of course be a little bit more challenging, but manageable for beginners also, I would say. So now let us jump on the bike at the Norwegian Swedish border and follow the Swedish T all the way up to Finland. Heat up Heat. [Music] Heat. Heat up Yeah. [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat.
