Information:

How to get there:
This mountain is located on the island of Stord. From Bergen, travel E-39 to Halhjem and take the ferry to Sandvikvåg. The ferry takes 45 minutes and departs every 20 minutes.
Turn right towards Fitjar. Drive another 1.5 kilometer, then turn right. Continue along the main road to find a parking area on your right. This location is N59.97082, E005.32343, elevation near 50 meter. Pay (2023) NOK 30 for the parking by Vipps.
Route:
Walk up the big forest road. Follow this road (left at fork) until right close to the summit. The few final meter consists of a pretty nice and easy trail. The highest point is a rock quite close to the hut.
Comments:
We went here after a hike where Heidi looked for "stolper" (Stolpejakt), while I got two summits in the same general area. We had some additional time and decided to check out this little summit on the way to the ferry. There is a small hut designed for hikers on the very summit.
