- aRide a motorbike on paths in the forest if you ride slowlyÅ kjøre motorsykkel på stier i skogen hvis du kjører sakte
- bGo hiking in forests and mountains, even if someone else owns the areaÅ gå på tur i skog og på fjell, selv om noen andre eier områdetCorrect answer
- cWalk through a private garden when you take a shortcutÅ gå gjennom en privat hage når du tar en snarvei
Why?
The right of public access means that everyone can move freely in uncultivated land (utmark), such as forests and mountains, even if the area is private. Gardens and areas around houses are not uncultivated land, and you may not drive motor vehicles on paths in the forest.
