My new favourite mountain in Tromsø :) We met up in the parking lot around 8.30 and started our hike shortly after. The trail up to Middagsaksla is really, really great and the elevation gain was steady and effective. Well marked (not surprising with Tromsø Skyrace the day before) and soon we were at 1100moh and were greeted with stunning views of Hamperokken. From here we just followed the ridge all the way towards Hamperokken and had a wonderful time scrambling over excellent rocks. We walked over the crest of the ridge for majority of the trip, though there is a small trodden path that goes a little lower down to the right. In the last section before the summit, the trail goes up through a gully, though we scrambled up the bigger rocks to the right. After a small lunch break and realizing the clouds that had come in weren't going to dissapear, we started heading back down to the car. A really fun day out, thanks for a wonderful trip hmsv1 (Hannah Vickers), Alex & Eli!
