Trip Summary
With limited time available, we decided to do a short hike not far from home. We parked next to Betanien in the north of Fyllingsdalen and started our hike in the direction of Nordnæsdalen. Next the playing field next to Nordnæshytten, we turned right and started our ascent towards Olsokfjellet from there. Due to the snow and ice, it was good to use brodder (light version of crampons). From Olsokfjellet, we then continued to Damsgårdsfjellet (around Tverrdalen). Via Skaret, we then continued further into the direction of Gravdalsfjellet, including also Holefjellet and Nygårdsnipa. From Gravdalsfjellet, we then took a trail down into Espedalen (without passing by Viggohytten first). From there, it was then right back to the car. Really nice to have the opportunity for such a nice hike right next to where one lives! :-)
