For the second time this summer I hitched a ride to Vikafjellet where I was dropped off at Nordre Skjelingen and could start my ascent of Urdeggi via the gravel road between the cabins. After passing the final cabin I found my own way to the summit. This was straightforward and the summit provided spectacular views.

From Urdeggi I first walked south on a trail along the ridge, but later headed more directly to the gravel road to the southwest to begin my ascent of Skjelinganosi. The ascent looked steep from a distance but turned out to be a marked trail with small cairns leading the way. Once more the views were impressive, especially near the steep north face.

After a short lunch break, I headed south/southwest via Skjelinganosi Sør to Skabotsvarden. No trails here as far as I could tell but the terrain was easy to traverse and did not present any challenges. The large summit cairn at Skabotsvarden was therefore easily reached and I could once more enjoy excellent views.

To get to the bus stop at the main road I decided to first descend northeast before later turning east. This worked out well, although this route can most likely be improved upon. I made it to the bus stop with around 15 minutes to spare, which turned into 30 minutes due to the bus from Vagsnes was delayed.

To conclude, an excellent hike with spectacular views that can be highly recommended!
