Tips for your bike ride

• 55 Forførende friluftsmål (enticing outdoor destinations) – often 55FF – are specially selected, attractive hiking destinations in Salten ranging from easy walks to more demanding hikes. Read more about 55FF here.
• Change your cycling direction and time of day to suit the weather and other wishes. Remember it’s light 24/7 here during the summer. You can always turn back or replace stages by express boat (if possible).
• Bring a bike pump, tyre lever, extra bike tube and multi-tool suitable for your bike. There are few bicycle operators in the district.
• Bring a water bottle. The water from mountain streams is mostly drinkable.
• Check the opening hours of the grocery stores you plan to use before you set off.
• Leave as few physical traces as possible and always dispose of your rubbish responsibly.
• Remember you are not permitted to camp closer than 150 m from an inhabited house or cabin.
• Special rules may apply for camping in nature reserves.
• Be considerate to other traffic (even though there is not much).
• Greet people you meet and stop for a chat.
