Ulrikseggen
A hike after work to try the steep trail to Ulriken via Ulrikseggen.
Before starting on Ulrikseggen I made short detours to the ruins of Krutthuset and to Karistølen. I did not find a trail to the former, it was less than 20 meters from the road though, while for the latter, a trail continued where the road ended, but as far as I could tell it did not go far.
The Ulrikseggen trailhead was unmarked but relatively easy to locate. After the first meters being wet and muddy, the trail quality was significantly better than expected. There were a couple of short sections requiring a bit of scrambling, but overall the trail did not present any real challenges, and provided several spots with excellent views. After reaching the summit of Ulriken Vest, I descended via Langrinden.
To conclude, this is in my opinion by far the most interesting ascent to Ulriken and can be highly recommended as an alternative to the other more common routes. Note that one should stick closely to the trail though, as any departure from it can quickly end up in very steep terrain that might be difficult to get out of.
