These trails are both exist- ing single trails and the occasional gravel roads. By connecting these to new trails, plus adding markings along the routes, the Faroe Islands can present an amazing grid of trails for the adventurous rider. Vertical drop of a hundred meter As the sun leaves the sky and gently dives into the ocean, Helgi and Lisette have found a trail a bit from the lake shore, a trail that leads towards the horizon. The trail is soggy and hard to ride as the last bit is uphill. They shift gears, lean forward and push hard in the pedals. They´re driven by their curiosity and urge to explore new places on their mountain bikes. Helgi can´t imagine that there has ever been a mountain bike at this location. Hikers yes, but mountain bikers most likely not. Helgi´s love for mountain biking is genuine and combined with his urge to create opportunities for other riders, it´s only fair to say that Helgi is a Nordic pioneer, and an adventurer by heart.
