41 4×4 cars and ATV showed up a Saturday’s SOT Botkyrka-Stockholm. An OK figure in this unusual hot Swedish summer where the beach suddenly is an option. ATV was allowed again at Botkyrka motor stadium so there was a fine mix of cars and ATV. The hilly trails were mostly dry this summer but there […]
30 4×4 cars and ATV showed up at Friday’s SOT Rörken-Uppsala. The high but safe insurance costs do keep vehicles away, especially for ATV. Otherwise Rörken is a great area with absolutely free driving. For photos and more info see: facebook.com/swedenoffroad and #swedenoffroadtour . Tomorrow Saturday starts the last weekend on SOT 2021. We drive […]
34 4×4 cars (ATV not allowed) showed up for the premiere of SOT Hamre-Hedemora! That is probably a SOT record for the Southern county of Dalarna. Swedes often hesitate to be the first on a new thing. They want to wait for the second chance to feel safe. But not so at Hamre Motor Stadium. […]
30 4×4 cars and ATV showed up at Wednesday’s SOT Aspnäs-Säter in the county of Dalarna, “The heart of Sweden”. That is 50 % more than last year and a new record for SOT Säter. A good figure for being a weekday in a sparsely populated area AND unusual warm summer weather for being Sweden, […]
Sometimes Sweden Offroad Tour is critised for being old fashion and only accept cash money – although we accept any currency.

24 4×4 cars (ATV not allowed) showed up at Tuesday’s SOT Björnhyttan-Ludvika. That is 25 % more than last year and a OK figure for a weekday and those sparsely populated areas of Sweden far in the inland. SOT want to reach these parts to. SOT Ludvika offers a myriad av rocky trails in a […]
Yet another glorious Swedish summer day at Monday’s SOT Brändåsen-Kumla. We have been very lucky with the weather so far. 26 4×4 cars and ATV came, 25 % more than last year. There are fewer vehicles during the second week of SOT because we are going north where it is more sparsely populated. Kumla had […]
48 4×4 cars and ATV showed up at Sunday’s SOT Gröndal-Eskilstuna. Gröndal is famous for its long, muddy and sometimes rocky trails. Even the ATV had to winch sometimes. Gröndal Motor Stadium has a lot of new motor sport tracks which have made the terrain smaller, although its still big, but the partner club is […]
87 vehicles showed up at Saturday’s SOT Olerum-Söderköping. That is a record for SOT 2021 so far but we did not break the magic 100-wall as we hoped. In Olerum there was not only 4×4 cars and ATV but a lot of military 6×6 and even a 6×6 ATV! Olerum is Sweden’s largest och most […]
37 4×4 cars and ATV came to Friday’s SOT Greppek-Oskarshamn on the Swedish east coast. A little more than last year. We have had more vehicles on every SOT day this year compared to 2020.

That is almost double as many as last year and a super record for the partner Hässleholms Motorklubb Offroad and their leader Anders Forsell, who is […]
45 cars and ATV showed up at Monday’s SOT Vånga-Kristianstad. A very good figure for being a weekday. The huge gravel pit with its sandy slopes is very popular with standard cars and ATV and new beginners. Not a nasty stone in sight, only soft gravel and sand, like cottton! You can see on the […]
59 cars showed up at Sunday’s SOT Paradise-Karlshamn. (ATV not allowed.) A little less then expected. Maybe the heavy rain during the night scared away some, but the day was another sunny and warm summer day. SOT Paradise-Karlshamn is regarded as Sweden’s finest private offroad area, where offroading i allowed only one time per year […]
