Course description: Rute beskrivelse:
I Frederiksværk ligger Arresødal, et lille kuperet område ned til Arresø. Her har vi lavet et teknisk og fysisk krævende spor som udfolder sig med lige dele stejle opkørsler, sjove nedkørsler, snoede single tracks og andre udfordringer. Der er god grund til at pudse formen ekstra godt af inden Shimanoligaen for første gang besøger Frederiksværk. Ruten er forholdsvis kort og intens, så der er ikke mange pusterum
undervejs! Rytterne vil opleve et spor der udfordrer både deres kondition og deres tekniske formåen. Opkørsler med varierende stigning og sving, switch back nedkørsler og sågar et drop eller to skal nok sørge for at dem der har trænet hårdt får noget ud af deres anstrengelser.
Det hele ligger tilmed indenfor så lille et område at man kan gå rundt og se løbet fra flere steder! Den fjerneste ende af sporet kan nås på 10 – 15 minutter til fods. Flere steder møder sporet sig selv, så der er super gode muligheder for at se masser af action.


Course description:
In Frederiksværk, north west of Copenhagen you find a small area with steep forested climbs known as Arresødal. Arresø is the name of a large lake by the city. The name of the place means the valley by Arresø lake. Here we have created a technical and physically demanding track with nothing but steep climbs, fun downhill, twisted single track and other challenges. There’s every reason to make sure you are as fit as you can be for this! It’s the first time a Shimanoliga race takes place in this venue. The track is short and intense, leaving little room to catch your breath. Riders will see a course which challenges their fitness and  technical abilities alike. Climbs featuring shifting gradients and turns, switch back downhill passages and even a drop or two will make sure that those who take their training seriously will have the upper hand on
race day!
The entire course is within a very small area with less than 15 minutes walking to the farthest end of the track. The course meets itself in several places, so there will be plenty of action to be seen.

Short route 92 altitude meters per round.
Long route 296 altitude meters per round.
Longeste climb/uphill about 300 meter 8-14 % increase.
