We started our day with a boat ride in Holandsfjorden to Engen. From here we rented bikes and cycled 3km along Engabrevatnet until we came to the trail start up to Svartisen. From here we followed the signs to Tåkeheimen. We walked up over smooth svaberg, before the trail got steeper in rockier & sandier terrain. Stunning views over Svartisen! From here it was good, steady elevation gain up a clear trail until we came to the Tåkeheimen cabin after 1t45min. Here we had a food break, checked out the amazing cabin, and then headed up along the ridge towards the top. A steep and sandy trail to start with, before heading through a nice, fast boulder field and then following easy terrain of small rocks and some snow fields towards the top. Phenomenal views over Svartisen as far as the eye could see to the east and over peaks and fjords to the north. Another hot day but we were saved by ice cold wind from the glacier. Nothing to complain about today, just an incredible day hiking an incredible mountain. Tusen takk for turen otto (Otto Teksum Lund), innerdal (Inger Lise Innerdal) og uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund).

Waiting for the boat - it's gonna be a beautiful day!
