Skagen and Veten from Vikaleitet
Started by taking the bus to Vikaleitet and walking up Sæterstølsvegen (note that the GPS tracking was not turned on until 10-15 min into the hike). From Sæterstøl I easily located the trail towards Veten and followed it until I found a smaller trail in the direction of Skagen. Even though it is not a very high peak, it did provide some nice views.
From Skagen I continued onwards to Veten and after a short break at the top, I decided to go via Storsåta (a smaller peak to the west of Veten). I did not locate a trail to the summit of Storsåta, but it was not too difficult to reach. However, it was not really worth it as the views were pretty poor. It got a bit better when walking 50 meters or so northeast through the trees at the summit, but still not a summit I can really recommend.
I returned to the trail and followed it back to where I had started the hike, where I decided to extend the hike with an extra detour around Langavatnet via Melingen and onwards to Tertneskrysset before finally catching a bus home. The first part of this addition can be recommended as it follows a nice gravel road, while the latter was mainly included as a way of getting to a bus stop where I didn't have to wait too long for a bus to arrive.

Storsåta ved Veten i Åsane
Geschrieben von hbar 16.04.2017 23:34Great! And yes, I completely agree that the misnamed Storsåta (ved Veten i Åsane) can easily be skipped without missing much. :)
Nice inspiration! :-)
