The training area at Korsdalshus
At Korsdalshus you will find a dedicated training area of approximately 10 hectares, marked with red posts. Within this demarcated area, mountain bikers have the opportunity to ride freely on the forest floor, while the general rules for cycling in forests must still be observed. It is important to note that it is not permitted to make terrain changes or build other structures within the area.
At the site at Korsdalshus there is a water fountain where you can fill up your water bottle during the summer months - a practical detail to keep your energy up during training.

The packed lunch house
The packed lunch house is located at the meeting point behind the shooting range and the MTB starting point in Nordskoven. There is water and toilet facilities and the possibility of washing bicycles. There is also a grill in the packed lunch house, but you must bring your own grill charcoal. The meeting point is a good starting point for getting out and experiencing Nordskoven on hiking and cycling trips. The packed lunch house was built by Silkeborg Municipality, which is also responsible for its operation.
Sejs Hundeskov
One of the southern starting points for the MTB trail in Nordskoven is at Sejsvej, right next to the area locally known as Hundeskoven in Sejs. From here you can easily connect to the trails and access both the technical sections and the more flowing parts of the route.
The starting point is ideal if you are coming from the south – either by car or by bike – and provides direct access to some of the scenic and challenging trails in the area.
Parking can be done on nearby side roads, but remember to be considerate of other users of the area, including dog walkers and pedestrians.
