The only more downhill-type of trail around Tromsø at the moment (Nov. 2014). No sanctioned building, but quite a lot of features to find and lots of fun to ride
single track in the upper part, a few steeper and rocky sections coming into the woods, then single track with a couple of drops and other features.
Last part is gravelroad.

NB: be carefull where the "sherpatrappa" comes into the trail (where the gravel road starts), there are usually a lot of hikers!

Access Info

Walk up/ride down or try to get the cable car and ride down.
