Cycle the Unionsleden

Do you enjoy an active holiday the best?

Now you can cycle parts of the Union Trail from the train station in Moss to Ørje. The cycle route goes all the way to Karlstad, but because the border now is closed there will be a stop in Ørje.

The Union Route from Moss to Karlstad which opens in the summer of 2021 goes through Indre Østfold. The bike route has not yet been officially opened, but the southern route is signposted, so you can go for a ride. The Union Trail goes through a rolling natural landscape with beautiful lakes and woodland, and when you cycle you have plenty of time to see the landscape and the little unique gems that emerge along the route. The shared historical legacy of union time and other important historical events are woven in. Spydeberg vicarage to name one - Here our constitution was saved. The best-documented 18th-century garden can also be found here. Other sights we can mention Solbergfoss Power Station, Høytorp Fort, Halden Canal, etc.

Facts Union Trial
The trail runs on the Norwegian side from Moss-Våler-Spydeberg-Askim-Mysen-Ørje. There is also a northern route that runs around Trøgstad.
This will be completed signage during the summer 2020. Our suggestion is that you cycle to Ørje and take the northern route back to Askim and take the train home from here.
