Skagen, Håkeberget and Veten

Another hike in Åsane with the main goal of visiting Håkeberget. A minor peak I had passed several times but never bothered to go to the actual summit. Strong winds today as well, almost making it difficult to stand upright at the summit of Veten. I went for a slightly unusual descent from Veten, which was an interesting alternative to the normal route, but as can be seen from the GPS-track it was clearly not a shortcut. My choice to stay on the right-hand side of the fence towards the end did not help though, and resulted in an extra detour.
