6th Stage: Animal Adventures

Naipablaak: 11.08.2017

EN | Ever since Arnaud heard about the Moose Park, it's been the only topic of conversation. So we took on the most challenging stage so far and cycled over really high hills. Occasionally, we had to push our vehicles, but the efforts were always rewarded with a fantastic view. The rest at the mountain lake 'Gröcken' was especially dreamy - we were treated to a beautiful sunset.

And finally, on a rainy and gloomy day, we reached the long-awaited stage destination: the Moose Park! This well-run animal reserve, with a lot of passion for its visitors, houses a male moose, a yearling male, and a female moose with seven-week-old offspring (a male and a female calf). We were able to see the latter three, with the grace and beauty of mother moose 'Lotta' impressing us the most. Arnaud got to feed the calves with bananas, carrots, and birch branches, and he was the only one – apart from the gamekeeper James – to enter the enclosure! What a great day for our little animal lover!

Afterwards, we had to ride a few more kilometers through the persistent rain to Ekshärad, where we treated ourselves to two nights in a Stuga (a small log cabin). Now the journey continues, and for the first time since the start of our trip, we head south: on a former railway track through the wilderness to Karlstad.

Finally, we arrived at the long-awaited stage on a rainy and cloudy day: the moose park! This well-managed animal reserve is shown with passion to its visitors. We were able to see a female moose and her two 'children' who are seven weeks old. The mother moose 'Lotta' impressed us a lot with her grace and beauty. Arnaud was even able to feed the calves with bananas, carrots, and birch branches. And the highlight of the visit: Arnaud was the only one who could enter the enclosure (!) - along with the guide James, of course. What an extraordinary day for the little animal lover!

Then we had to continue the journey, still in the rain, to Ekshärad, where we spent two nights in a Stuga (a small wooden cabin). Now the journey continues for the first time since the start, heading south: on a former railway track through wild landscapes to Karlstad!
