The Hlíðarfjall Bike Park is located in the ski area of the same name. In addition to the trails built here, there are numerous other trails in the immediate area. some of them are definitely suitable for gravel. Overall, a worthwhile destination that is easily accessible by bike from both the campsite and the city (a little uphill doesn't hurt 😉). Official homepage: hlidarfjall.is/en/information and on the Akureyri tourism site: visitakureyri.is/en/see-and-do/you-can-do-anything/cycling -tracks-bike-rental-and-bike-tours and last but not least on Trailforks: trailforks.com/region/hli-arfjall-bike-park/?activitytype=1&z=12.6&lat=65.65996&lon= -18.21743

Mountain biking
Hlíðarfjall Bike Park, in the mountains above Akureyri, is Iceland's only bike park. Open in summer, it offers a chairlift to take bikes up to almost 1,000 meters and some 40 km of trails: from technical tracks and challenging descents to smoother sections and even e-bike areas. The flagship descent drops more than 700 meters of elevation to the Glerá Valley, with stunning views of the fjord and mountains. It's the perfect place to get the most out of cycling in Iceland: varied terrain, a biker atmosphere, and the sensation of pedaling through a volcanic playground.
