Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
15:00h
Distance:
43.7km

Two days tour from Ljosanbotn (arrival with the train from Bergen) -- first day to Grindflethytta (via a really well marked trail, including three summer bridges); then, next day, first along the marked trail towards Fyre (up to the pass near Stangahøgdi, where the trail starts to descend into Øvsthusdalen), before then following the ridge up to Kaldanuten (no trail along this part) and then down (via Bjørndalsvatnet) into Bjørndalen and out to Brandset. An intense hike, alltogether: about 42km and about 15h out in the beautiful nature. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Hillwalk
Duration:

Distance:
10.2km

Beautiful tour up and down Oksen -- in fantastic summer weather! :-) We started from the parking place right above Tjoflot (at about 200m above the fjord) and took the (nice!) path via Vindhovden up to Oksen (we made the top, roughly 1000m above the parking place, after about 100mins.). We then continued to Veten and enjoyed the views and a break there! :-) Then back to Tjoflot, more or less the same path. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .
