From near Nyksund up steeply to Forste-Nyksundvatnet. Narrow but eroded and waymarked trails round side of Mælen and narrow ridge (birch-clad). Down steeply to coast at Ner-Langvaddalsvatnet. Rough waymarked trail along coast and round Valaksla to Stø. Ascent by eroded and waymarked trail to col Kallskaret on Valaksla where the road access to a 'golf-ball' military installation emerged from a tunnel. Ridgewalk over Nonstinden, Gjuraheia, Kjølen and several other small humps about 400m then detour to Sørkulen 518m and back to path traversing round side. Descent to narrow birch-clad ridge by adventurous rocky trail, in places provided with chains (which got in the way). Down to Forste-Nyksundvatnet and road. A real workout.
