Norsk (English below):
Moltekroken – en leken og bærekraftig ferdighetssti. Moltekroken er en blå gradert ferdighetssti som passer for de fleste – litt mer krevende enn Fossekallen, men enklere enn Skurfen. Her finner du små humper (pumps), skarpe svinger, et lite steinparti og en svingbro. Alle tekniske elementer kan sykles – eller trilles forbi om du ønsker.

Stien slynger seg gjennom et kjent myrområde hvor du om høsten kan oppleve "det gule gullet" – molter i sesong. Moltekroken er håndbygd med tanke på bærekraft, og har en utforming som både ivaretar naturen og gir lang levetid.

Dette er en morsom, lett teknisk avslutning på turen rundt Ustedalsfjorden, og stien knytter seg enkelt inn på hovedrunden. I samme område finnes det flere ferdighetsstier, og du kan også utforske flere i Vestlia Bike Park og Geilo Sommerpark.

Adkomst:
Moltekroken nås enkelt fra Ustedalsfjorden Rundt og ligger i det samme området som Fossekallen og Skurfen.

English:
Moltekroken – a playful and sustainable skills trail. Moltekroken is a blue-rated skills trail suitable for most riders – slightly more technical than Fossekallen, but easier than Skurfen. Along the way you’ll find small rollers, tight turns, a short rock section, and a swing bridge. All features can be ridden or walked around.

The trail winds through a well-known wetland area, where you might spot wild cloudberries in late summer. Built by hand with sustainability in mind, the trail protects the natural surroundings and is designed for long-term use.

Moltekroken is a great way to end your ride around the Ustedalsfjorden loop with a bit more technical fun. The trail connects easily back to the main loop. Additional skills trails can be found nearby, as well as in Vestlia Bike Park and Geilo Summer Park.

Access:
Easily accessed from the Ustedalsfjorden loop, located in the same area as Fossekallen and Skurfen.
