Description.

A short but nice green route through the straight and impressive Grev von Schmettows allé. The first part of the route runs along Rotvoll allé, past the Equinor building, among other things, and at Lukas upper secondary school you cycle straight south. This is a steady climb on a car-free road with a safe crossing under motorway 706 and E6 until you reach Hørløcks veg.

For those who want to continue cycling

Follow Hørløcks veg south, 150 metres after the junction with Yrkesskolevegen there is a sign to the right for the hiking trail to Strindamarka/Bekken/Brundalen. This hiking trail runs quite hidden along the idyllic Stokkbekken all the way to Dragvoll.
