Exercise Tracks in Skaraborg - Stöpen 2.5km


Today the time has come for the exercise track in Stöpen. This is actually my first post in this project.

This post is a part of my series on Exercise Tracks in Skaraborg, Sweden. For more click on this link.


Description

The trail goes counter clockwise. The first part is pretty flat, it comes quite close to the road at some parts so you can see and hear the cars. When the track turns east it starts to slowly go downhill and when it turns back west we have an uphill segment with an average gradient of 5% (according to Strava).


Walkthrough


The good

  • Lights, really good light setup all around the track.
  • Outdoor gym at the start area
  • A lot of places to sit around the track.
  • Clear signs for short-cuts and other information

The bad

  • Partly very close to road 26. At least the first part, a lot of car noises.
  • The parking space was a little small and had a lot of large holes in it. Luckily I have a larger car, but I think that it might be a problem for smaller cars.
  • No lights on the dirt road to and from the parking lot. Actually gets pretty dark here.
