Trip Summary
We started from Båtaleitet parking, quite a bit above Bruvik on Osterøy (to the right, right after crossing the bridge). Following the easy-to-find trail, we soon arrived at the top of Brøknipa (Bruviknipa), enjoying some very nice views over Sørfjorden from up there (it's always wonderful to stand on top of Brøknipa -- very much recommended!). After spending a bit of time on the top, we then returned back down on the same trail that we had taken up. A nice (not too long) hike with great views! :-)
