Cycle training at Hallandsåsen and Bjärehalvön
Kungsbygget Bike Park

Whether you’re a beginner trying MTB for the first time or an experienced rider looking for more challenging trails, there’s something for you.

Classic bicycle
Rent a bike waiting for you at the hotel
Through Bjäre Cykel, you can rent bikes that are delivered to the hotel, or have your own bike serviced via their mobile bike workshop. Here, you can rent a classic bike, kids’ bike, road bike, mountain bike, hybrid bike, or e-bike, as well as accessories like helmets, bike trailers, child seats, and bike racks for cars.
All bike rentals are booked and paid for online. Delivery is made to the location of your choice. Upon delivery, you’ll get help adjusting the saddle height and instructions on how the bike works.
… or rent a bike from us
There are also a number of bikes available for rent at the hotel. These bikes cannot be pre-booked and are offered subject to availability.
Classic bike: 24 hours SEK 200, 4 hours SEK 150
Kids’ bike: 24 hours SEK 120, 4 hours SEK 100
Cycle on the Bjäre Banvall
Just above the hotel, near Båstad’s old railway station, you’ll find the recreational trail Bjäre Banvall. The Bjäre Banvall stretches 14 km from Båstad to Förslöv, is mostly paved, and has a gravel path for horseback riding along the side. The trail is perfect for anything on wheels — strollers, bikes, wheelchairs, roller skis, and more. In Grevie, which is halfway, you’ll find a toilet, a bike pump, and a place to refill your water bottle.
Road cycling
Steep slopes make you work (out) harder
Bjärehalvön invites you to the best cycling terrain, in a varied and beautiful landscape with small, car-free roads, perfect for cycling and road biking. Steep hills, sweeping downhill slopes, rolling fields, beech forests and incredible views of the Kattegatt will raise your training motivation to new heights.
Here there are plenty of complete cycle routes that will challenge both routine road cyclists and cyclists who want to take their bike training to the next level. Here you have the perfect conditions for unloading in front of the Vättern Round, and if you live in northern Europe, Bjärehalvön is a quicker alternative to cycling in Mallorca.
