With some rough tracks and fallen trees, this area had a bit off hike-a-bike, but what good adventure doesn't?

Yet again, comfy rooms with a friendly proprietor who was more than eager to offer recommendations on where to eat. The surrounding town of Arvika is also a bit larger than the previous two stops on this itinerary, which makes finding food no issue, even late in the evening.

The streets around this park were roaring with pure American muscle on the Friday evening we arrived, with dozens of classic cars making the circuit as onlookers enjoyed the show.

After a long stretch with no snacks, we were delighted to spot a lakeside Coop on the map—and shortly dissapointed to discover it was closed on Sundays. But at least the sign in the parking lot shared the history of Skillingsfors.

A nice section that blurred the line between gravel track and trail. In general, Day Four had some of the rougher, more exciting off-road sections.

With all shops closed on Sunday and our bottles running low, we decided to take a chance and swing by a local flea market to ask the owners for a refill. We were greeted by two kind ladies who were more than happy to help out, topping off each bidon with a smile as we browsed their eclectic wares.

This is a great place to rest and swim. Camping for one night seems possible.
