Information:

How to get there:
Drive 11 kilometer on Hwy. 5 from Førde (on E-39), towards Florø. Immediately before a bridge (in Naustdal), turn right and find your way up the hill through an area with many houses and quite a few small roads (easy to end up in a wrong way). Higher up, the road is easier to follow as it heads towards the farm Helgås. Near the farm (right) the road also turns left, drive left up to some buildings that are not in use and park here. The location is N61.51118, E005.77069, elevation near 275 meter.
Route description:
Follow an old trail up the ridge just above the buildings. Continue uphill, there are small segments of trails, but no consistent route. Gradually, turn more north in order to locate the highest point.
Comments:
I left at 1040 and arrived at the summit after 15 minutes. The return took another 15 minutes.
