Information:

How to get there:
This is the northernmost high point on Askøy with more than 100 meter of prominence. Drive to Askøy and continue north approximately 12 kilometer from the end of the bridge. You should locate Åsbø and the place where HWy. 563 forks right to Hanevik.
Near a gentle left curve and a small hilltop, a very small ropad forks left. Follow this road uphill, taking the second left fork. This is a residential area, ask permission to park and make sure that you do not intrude on private homes and property. I parked at the very top, location N60:29.396 E005:08.114, elevation about 105 meter (having asked for permission).
Route description:
From the top of the road, ann easy to follow trail runs uphill to the summit area. There is a communication antenna near the summit.
Comments:
I parked at 1630 and I stopped at the summit around 1640. A very short hike indeed.
This trip continued to Storåsen.
