By postponing my Friday lunch break and starting the weekend early, I managed to squeeze in a short hike to at least enjoy the tail end of a very nice day. I started my hike from the final bus stop in Hausdalen and pretty much followed the same route as Kjell to the top of Trollhaugen.

This included first walking northeast along the gravel road and then turning southwest towards the summit via the private cabin Brekkestøl. From the cabin there was initially a weak trail but it soon disappeared and I was left with finding my own way. This was however straightforward and it did not take long before I arrived at the summit. Here I had my very late lunch break next to the cairn before turning back and following more or less the same route back to the bus stop.

To conclude, a hike to Trollhaugen can definitely be recommended. Clearly among the best of the many recent additions to the Alle topper i Bergen list.
