      Next to Borgund Stave Church, a few steps down the valley road starts on the right hand side of the Sverrestigen, which leads to this circular walk. This ancient path was already established around 950 AD. created. According to an old legal text, it was decreed that this path should be as wide as a spear is long.

      The surrounding farmers had to ensure that the path was in good condition. According to legend, King Sverre rode his horse here in 1177. The path initially leads gently uphill and runs through meadows and forest areas, in the midst of a beautiful mountain landscape. After about 45 minutes, the trail takes hikers down into Lærdalen and back to the viewpoint in front of the small town of Husum.

        Nice path behind a number of somewhat dilapidated farms.
