Hike
Duration:

Distance:

On this day I had another hike on the mountains of the island Godøy in Giske Municipality in Møre & Romsdal County in western Norway with my son Dag. We had a really nice hike; the pictures above speaks for themselves. The hike is pretty much identical to the one I made on May 2nd 2015.

We next followed the mountain edge westwards to a ridge that extends northwards from Mount Storhornet, and then we just continued along this ridge up to the summit. Net, we descended the rather steep path on the west side of Storhornet, and climbed up Mount Lesten, thus >>>

We set out from the parking lot at Mauseidvatnet as we've done before, and followed the gravel road through the forest past the cabin called Taustuhytta and up to the one called Rollonhytta . From there we continued along the mountain path that we had used before, up to the summit of the island, which is called Tverrfjellet or Vardane ; making sure though, to take a few minutes even to mount the peak called Rundehornet, so that I could tell people that I had been there also. From Vardane we descended in southwest direction towards Sulabakkhornet, and then >>>
