Austlendingen

From the parking lot for Austlendingen we crossed the main road and easily located the unmarked trailhead for Austlendingen. The trail climbed steeply up to Stegafossen where it crossed the river just above the waterfall. Not a lot of water today though, so it was straightforward to cross without getting wet.

The trail continued its steep climb upward, but also with several less steep section, until finally flattening out towards the summit. By now the wind had started to pick up, and combined with the limited views due the low-hanging clouds, we only had a quick bite before starting our descent along the same route.

In summary, a nice hike that can be recommended, although it is probably much more enjoyable on days with better weather.
