Salsborg from Skjelevika
After having abandoned the more direct trail from Øykjafjellet to Salsborg, and instead descended back to the main road for the short cycling trip to the marked trailhead for Salsborg, I again left the bike behind and started my ascent to Salsborg on foot. Unlike the trail to Øykjafjellet, the trail to Salsborg was marked all the way from the trailhead. It started out relatively steep, but levelled off before reaching the overhead power lines and shortly after turned west towards the summit. Later there was also a sign for the trail to Øykjafjellet, but again the trail seemed rather weak, and I did not regret my choice from earlier.
Note that the large cairn is not at the summit itself, but rather 75 meters southwest of the summit. However, the trail more or less passes by the summit on the way to the cairn. Both locations provided excellent panoramic views and Salsborg is clearly worth a visit. After a short break, I followed the same route back to the main road.
In summary, both Salsborg and the neighboring Øykjafjellet are excellent alternatives to the more famous Hovlandsnuten, even though the views may not be as spectacular.
