Trip suggestions for e-bikes
E-bikes are defined as motorized vehicles in the national park and protected areas, this also applies when the motor is switched off. You are not allowed to use an e-bike on the trail network in protected areas or on roads that are closed to motorized traffic. Electric bicycles may only be used on roads where cars are permitted to drive.
The National Park Trail
The hiking and cycling trail over Dovrefjell provides fantastic views of the mighty mountains, takes you through beautiful mountain pastures and is well adapted for both adults and children traveling on two wheels. You can follow the marked route from Dombås to Hjerkinn, or cycle the full “Tour de Dovre” to Folldal and through Grimsdalen. This trip takes you through three national parks. It is also a hiking and cycling route so electric bicycles are allowed here.
Parking is possible in Dombås city center. You can also park you vehicle at many picnic areas and parking lots along the E6 between Dombås and Hjerkinn, or at Hjerkinnhus in Hjerkinn for a fee.
The shared-use path through Lesja
Between Dombås and Lesjaskog, visitors can cycle along the shared-use path without having to cycle along the E136 road. This path is paved, and mainly runs parallel to the E136 road.
You can also follow the county roads and the quiet side roads in a vibrant cultural landscape. Between Lesjaverk and Bjorli, there is a nice hiking trail on the western side of Lesjaskogsvatnet lake where you follow the wide gravel path. Read more at Ut.no
Winter cycling
Summer cycling rules also apply in the winter. Visitors can only cycle in places where it is permitted during the summer season.
