© Innika De Rosa Another day of rainy weather in Lofoten, which meant a shorter and smaller trip. Narvtinden looks pretty cool from the road, so Paal decided he wanted to go. We parked behind a red Sammfunshus in Møllarodden and started heading up a gravel road. After 200m we took a right over a stone bridge and followed a nice, clear and easy to walk trail up the mountain. Lots of big Svaberg rocks which I like walking on. The path soon went to the left hand side of Tekoppstetten, where we got a clear view over to our goal. The path went down around 70m elevation before it started heading up the ridge. Still a really nice path to walk on, a few places with some small scrambling and soon we reached the østtoppen which was at 677m. We continued following the path along the ridge, losing about 30m elevation >>>

© Innika De Rosa Even though the trail is officially closed for repair work done by the Sherpas, we work an evening trip after they were finished working for the day. Short and steep, we used around 50mins until we came up to the famous, magnificent, wonderful view from the top. This trip would have gotten a 6, but we didn’t walk up the stairs as we didn’t want to disturb any work that was happening. The trail is completely destroyed which was really sad to see. Majority of the path was just a lot of slippery mud or loose stones. Would recommend avoiding this trail until the stairs are finished....dessverre utsikten fristet oss alt for mye! <gallery>

© Innika De Rosa After camping just outside Henningsvær for the night, we saw a break in the clouds and decided to take a quick trip up Festvågtinden. The path started with some big boulders, pretty muddy and slippery but easy to follow. We started by taking a path which led more to the right, which we realised was heading to the lake. We crossed back over the stones and walked on the left hand side. We reached the top after 50minutes, and after some photos and droning, we saw a path leading further along the ridge which looked like it could lead to some cool photos (so of course Paal had to go!). We followed a small trail on the traverse that leads to Presten. We found a rock which I had seen on Instagram and had wanted to visit, but thought it was only available from climbing the Presten wall, which was >>>

© Innika De Rosa A small late afternoon trip that we decided to take on the way as we were driving out to Reine. We parked on the side of the E10 in a car park to the left of the main road, and to the side of Lofotcabins there was a path leading up the mountain. A good, clear path that was easy to follow. Really nice view from the top. I was a bit tired as it was our second trip for the day, we used 45mins up but could be done in 30mins. Takk for turen uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund)

© Innika De Rosa Norsk turrapport kan leses hos otto (Otto Lund) Today we tried a new path up Store Bentsjordtinden. Still really hot up here in Tromsø, ideally we could have started the hike earlier in the day, but as I worked late last night we started around 10am. We followed a Ti på Topp sign up a steep path through the forrest to begin with. The path was really steep to begin with, but once we reached the end of the tree line, the terrain flattened out and we had a nice view behind us down to the fjord. Nice to be finished with some altitude. The flies were already out in full force as we followed red markers up the mountain. The trail disappears through the grass, but the red markers are easy enough to follow. Once we had climbed to 800moh, we had the top of the mountain in sight. The terrain then started to get a little >>>

© Innika De Rosa Norsk tur rapport kan leses hos uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund) What a hike! We took the ferry from Kågan early in the morning and parked at Lauksletta, the left hand side of the Fv347, on Arnøya. We followed a weak path in the valley, on the right hand side of the river, and started gaining elevation pretty quickly. I had done the MSM half marathon 2 days before so my legs were pretty tired, but the views were quickly motivating enough! We walked past a beautiful waterfall on the left and soon lost the trail. We aimed for the pass which was a little to our left, there was quite a lot of snow still on the mountain which we were happy about as we would save some elevation on the way back! Once we got to the pass (ca. 700moh) we continued upwards to the right, where we could see our goal on the left. It was mostly snow with >>>

© Innika De Rosa My favourite hike in Patagonia! We began our hike after driving to the town of Cerro Castillo in Patagonia. We drove north out of town, took a turn to the left and followed a bridge over a river until we came to a parking place. We had to pay 10,000pesos each (ca. 150kr) to walk for 45 minutes across a private property. The trail was clearly marked, and the whole day we saw only 4 other people. The trail was quite sandy, but very easy to walk on with no stones. After about an hour we had climbed a decent amount of elevation and came to some snow patches. We walked up over these and had climbed 1000m in elevation after just under 2 hours, where we were greeted with an amazing view of Cerro Castillo and a lake that was still half frozen. Paal walked around the edge of the lake to a the edge of >>>

© Innika De Rosa Hiking to the Mirador las Torres from Hotel las Torres in Torres del Paine National Park, Patagonia. The hike was simple - a wide, easy to walk path with a million people on it.... uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund) gikk hele turen med å si 'jævla 17. mai tog!'. We walked pretty steadily, gaining and losing elevation for the first 9km or up until around 570moh. From there it was a nice, steep push up to the viewpoint of Mirrador Las Torres, we welcomed the raise in heart rate after a few hours of meandering along the river! A nice experience, but sadly we were pretty let down as our expectations of hiking here were really high. Way too many people and tourists and a lot of rubbish everywhere. We had planned to do the 10-day O-circuit but changed our plans because of this hike and left the park after only 1 day. Would have been >>>
