Local tips
- Check the club’s schedule and membership or day-fee requirements in advance; this is an organized motorsport venue, not an unsupervised public dirt area.
- Bring full protective gear including helmet, goggles, boots and body armor, as well as tools and spares for basic bike maintenance between sessions.
- Weather affects track conditions significantly—expect dust in dry spells and heavy ruts or mud after rain, and plan tyres and clothing accordingly.
- If you are accompanying a rider, pack water, snacks and warm layers; facilities are practical rather than extensive and the wind can feel strong in open areas.
- Combine a track day with time in nearby Mols Bjerge National Park or Ebeltoft’s historic center to balance motorsport with nature and coastal sightseeing.

Getting There
-
Car from Ebeltoft
Driving from central Ebeltoft to Mols Cross Club typically takes around 15–20 minutes, depending on traffic and conditions. The route follows local country roads through gently rolling farmland, with moderate gradients but no demanding terrain. There is usually informal parking space near the track for cars and vans, suitable for transporting bikes and gear. Fuel up in town beforehand, as services are more limited in the immediate rural area.
-
Car from Aarhus
From Aarhus, the journey to the Mols area generally takes about 50–70 minutes by car, using regional roads across Djursland. Surfaces are paved throughout, and the route is straightforward but can be busier on summer weekends. Expect typical fuel and food costs for a return trip of roughly 90–120 km, and allow extra time when towing a trailer with bikes. The final approach uses smaller country roads where speeds are lower and visibility can be reduced in poor weather.
-
Regional bus plus short bike ride
It is possible to reach the area near Mols Cross Club using regional buses that connect Ebeltoft with surrounding villages, with typical travel times of 20–40 minutes depending on route and stops. Single adult fares on local buses in Central Jutland usually fall in the range of 25–60 DKK per journey. Services may be less frequent in the evenings and on weekends. From the nearest bus stop, expect a short ride by bicycle or moped along rural roads; carry gear securely and be prepared for wind exposure.
-
Cycling from nearby accommodation
If you are staying in the immediate Mols Bjerge area, reaching the club by bicycle can take 20–40 minutes from many local holiday homes or campsites. The roads are paved but may include gentle hills and sections without dedicated cycle paths, so visibility gear and lights are recommended, especially outside summer. This option is best for accompanying spectators or light commuters, as transporting a full-size motocross bike by pedal power is not practical.

Motocross in the Heart of Mols
Mols Cross Club sits along Mols Bjerge Vej on the outskirts of Ebeltoft, where farmland begins to fold into the hills of Mols Bjerge. This is a purpose-built motocross track rather than a casual play area, laid out with dirt straights, rhythm sections and sculpted jumps designed for off-road motorbikes. From the edge of the track you see the contrast between churning tyres and the soft, undulating landscape that defines this part of Djursland. The club operates as an organized motorsport venue, hosting practice sessions and events under clear rules. It provides a controlled environment for riders to develop technique, whether they are young beginners or experienced competitors. The presence of a dedicated layout, marked run-off areas and defined viewing spots gives the facility a structured feel, even when the mud is flying.Track Layout and Riding Atmosphere
The circuit at Mols Cross Club typically includes a mix of features that challenge balance and throttle control. Expect bermed corners where bikes carve high arcs in the dirt, tabletop jumps that reward precise speed, and shorter technical sections that demand quick gear changes. The surface is compacted soil that can shift from dusty to muddy depending on recent weather, adding an extra layer of variety from session to session. When the track is active, the atmosphere is dominated by the staccato sound of engines and the smell of fuel and damp earth. Spectators can watch riders line up at the start gate, sprint into the first corner and fan out across the circuit. At quieter times between sessions, the track reveals its form: rutted lines, rebuilt jumps and maintenance work that keeps the course in usable condition.Club Culture and Community
Mols Cross Club functions as a community hub for motorsport enthusiasts in the Ebeltoft area. As a club-based facility, access is typically structured around membership, organized training and scheduled opening hours. This encourages a culture where riders look out for one another, swap advice on bike setup and line choice, and help newcomers understand both safety expectations and local etiquette. Along the edges of the track there is room for vans and trailers, with riders unloading bikes, adjusting suspension and checking tyre pressures. Conversations range from race stories to talk of upcoming regional meets. The shared focus on off-road motorcycling gives the place its character: practical, muddy, and proudly niche within a landscape better known for hiking and coastal holidays.Between Nature and Noise
The surroundings of Mols Cross Club are a defining part of the experience. Beyond the perimeter you see fields, tree lines and the gently rising profile of Mols Bjerge. On clear days, the light changes quickly, and dust kicked up from the track hangs briefly in the air before drifting into the open countryside. It is a setting where the mechanical intensity of motocross is framed by a distinctly Danish rural backdrop. Because the area is otherwise quiet, the club typically operates within agreed environmental guidelines to balance motorsport with local life. Noise-conscious scheduling, environmental approvals and attention to runoff management help ensure that the track coexists with nearby nature, reflecting Denmark’s broader approach to combining outdoor recreation with care for the landscape.Planning Your Visit as a Rider or Spectator
A visit to Mols Cross Club is best planned in advance around the club’s calendar. Riders usually need appropriate off-road motorcycles, full protective gear and an understanding of the rules that govern track use. Sessions may be separated by age group or experience level, allowing both junior riders and seasoned adults to enjoy the course at a suitable pace. It is a place to focus on technique, endurance and consistent laps rather than casual sightseeing. Spectators who come along with riders can expect basic trackside comforts rather than full-service facilities. Simple seating spots, vehicles parked close to the action and informal social areas form the backdrop to the day. Combining time at the track with the broader attractions of Mols Bjerge and nearby Ebeltoft can turn a training day into a well-rounded excursion in this corner of Jutland.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
