Route 3: A nicer route to SVC Scandinavian Rally. From Helsingborg / Skåne

Do you like to ride your bike down winding roads and do you have extra time to spare on the journey to Olofström?
If you travel from north-west Skåne, this could be a nice alternative road choice. The route sets out from Helsingborg.

1	Helsingborg	This route sets out from Helsingborg. Choose Rd 110 toward Bjuv.
2	Bjuv	Keep on straight through the roundabout and take a left just after Bjuv.
3	Norra Vram	Take the road "Stenestadsvägen" toward Stenestad over the ridge Söderåsen.
4	Stenestad	Take a right after the church in Stenestad and left in next crossing.
5	Ljungbyhed	West of Ljungbyhed, along Rd 13 we find the restaurant Spångens Gästgivaregård. Maybe it is time for a good meal?
		After Ljungbyhed continue east toward N Rörum.
6	Färingtofta	Straight ahead if you choose the Red route.
