Trip Summary

To get some fresh air on this Saturday, we took our eBikes and biked to Loddefjord. In the west of Skarpafjellet, we took a side road up to the transformer station (west of Grøvledalen). From there we followed the trail up to the saddle in the north of Skarpafjellet, following the trail towards Lyderhorn from there. For the ascent to Lyderhorn, we chose the route via Små Lyderhorn, while we then descended along the trail a bit further in the east. Once down from Lyderhorn, again, we basically followed the same trail back to our bikes that we had taken up, first. Always nice to make a trip to Lyderhorn! :-)
