In many places there are also good opportunities to alternate hiking with other activities. If you want this type of mountain holiday, you need to choose your destination carefully. Examples of mountain resorts with plenty of activities other than hiking include S\u00e4len, Idre, Fun\u00e4sfj\u00e4llen, \u00c5re and Hemavan. All of these places offer hiking trails, interesting places to visit and guided activities of various kinds. Many offer fishing and cycling is the most popular activity after hiking.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mountain biking in the mountains<\/strong><br>In recent years, cycling has become a major activity in many mountain areas \u2013 you\u2019ll find trail biking, downhill and cross-country biking of different difficulty levels. There may be trails on the mountains, but in the ski resorts a range of slopes have been created where you can take the lift up with your bike. Some people also enjoy cycling up! Cycling across the mountains between different overnight stops is not yet common. It\u2019s best to stick to trails and cycle paths that are recommended locally. These are signposted and prepared so that cycling harms the environment as little as possible. There are often also guided tours for both beginners and experienced cyclists \u2013 if you choose to join one, you\u2019ll get help setting up your bike as well as discovering all the best cycling routes. Bicycles are available for hire, including children\u2019s bikes. And of course you should wear a helmet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most people go to the mountains to hike, but you may also want to do other things like cycling, fishing and maybe canoeing.
