Nordbykollen from Drammen stasjon
When having to arrive the day before to attend a two-day conference in Oslo, I decided to leave Bergen early such that I could also get the chance to include a short hike. After flying to Gardermoen I continued by train to Drammen from where I set aim for Nordbykollen just as it stopped raining and the sun started to appear. I quickly came across signs for Nordbykollen which I could more or less follow all the way to the summit. I did however make a couple of minor detours on the way, including an ascent of Svenskeåsen and a lunch break at Speiderhytta, before heading to the large lookout tower at the top of Nordbykollen. I descended via an alternative route and then returned the same way to the train station. Overall, a nice short hike with excellent views from the summit thanks to the tower.
