Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
2:00h
Distance:
5.0km

Hike from Kaland to Orretua and back to Kaland via Vardafjellet. We had parked near the sports arena of Kaland, walking from there in southeastern direction along Osvegen. Near Smådal, we ascended (without a trail) to the ridge in the northeast of the road. Once up the ridge, we then followed this ridge in northeastern direction (towards Orretua). About half way towards Orretua, we could have switched to a forrest road, which would have led us to Orretua quite easily. Instead, however, we continued along the "high edge" over the much lower extending Bontveitvegen (without a trail). This, first, was straight forward and easy. To connect, then, to Orretua, however, was a bit more challenging (but not really difficult). From Orretua, we then followed a nice trail to Vardafjellet >>>
