The first goal of this local evening hike was to locate the remains of Trollborg south of Sandviksfjellet that Kjell51 (Kjell Øijorden) came across during his recent hike, which turned out to be easier than expected as it was clearly visible from the trail. I must have passed it many times even without noticing it.

When taking a closer look at the cabin, I also came across a trail heading south that I had not seen before, which I of course had to explore. The trail was a bit weak at times, but was overall not too difficult to follow. It turned relatively steep towards the end, before, as expected, connecting with the gravel road in Skredderdalen.

But while the discovery of the trail had been a success, it today ended up being a rather long detour, given that the second goal of the evening was to visit Fjeldborg, so there was nothing to do but head back up Skredderdalen.

I had passed close by Fjeldborg the other day as well, but did not get all the way to the cabin due to the hill being full of tents and hammocks. Today I had the hill all to myself, and could enjoy a nice sunset before returning to the gravel road.
