Bybrua: Cross-country skiing, cycling and sporting clays

In Bybrua, different interests have specific places to go: a cross-country ski trail connected to a larger network of trails, a cycling tour that passes through the residential area on the return journey, and a sporting clays range. A sports lodge is also available to rent. If you are looking for a holiday rental in Bybrua, it helps to first consider which of these activities fits your travel plans. Cross-country skiing, cycling and shooting sports offer different ways to shape your stay.

Haugrunden (Blivgodt) cross-country ski trail

The Haugrunden (Blivgodt) cross-country ski trail starts at the car park in Haug and runs to Blivgodt. It is also connected to the wider trail network of Gjøvik, Toten and Land. This means the trail can be considered both in terms of its specific route and its connection to the larger network. For guests interested in cross-country skiing, this connection is a feature in its own right: Haugrunden is not just the name of a trail, but is linked to a network covering the three named areas.

Two place names help you find your way: the trail starts at the car park in Haug; the visitor address is Hørstadskauvegen 20, 2822 Bybrua. When planning your activity, note the distinct purpose of each detail. The car park is the stated starting point, while the visitor address provides a separate reference point. The trail runs from Haug to Blivgodt; these two places define the route described.

Bybrua on a cycling tour

Cyclists also have a specific connection to Bybrua. The cycling tour “Opp i høyden fra Gjøvik stasjon” passes through the residential area of Bybrua on its return journey towards Gjøvik. This makes Bybrua part of the return leg of the tour. This differs from the cross-country ski trail, whose start, destination and connection to the trail network are specified. If you are interested in the cycling tour, the section through the residential area is the part described as being in Bybrua.

Sporting clays at Revhiholen Shooting Range

The Gjøvik & Vardal Hunting Association has a sporting clays range at Revhiholen Shooting Range. It is located at Vesteråsvegen 340, 2822 Bybrua. This is another, quite different activity associated with a specific address in Bybrua. If you are interested in this type of shooting sport, you can include the range as a separate stop in your travel plans.

The association can arrange instruction from instructors on request. To do so, you must tell the range officer what you would like. This gives you a specific way to request instruction if you want to use the range. This information relates to the shooting sports offering and should not be confused with the details about the cross-country ski trail or cycling tour.

Sports lodge and holiday rental

The Varde IL sports lodge can be rented at Odnesvegen 628, 2822 Bybrua. It is another local point of interest alongside the ski trail, cycling tour and shooting range. When choosing a holiday rental, it is worth clarifying what you want to focus on: if you want to centre your stay on cross-country skiing with access to the larger network, the Haugrunden trail is the relevant point of reference. If you are interested in the cycling tour, its return route passes through Bybrua. If sporting clays interest you, there is a dedicated range where you can request instruction from instructors. These different interests can help you tailor your search for a holiday rental to your planned trip.
