Hiking
Much longer than 2 hours and 10 minutes. The route consists of 80% steep slope with rocks and tree roots. So it's a lot of scrambling. We reached the top in 2 hours and then the descent had to begin. Beautiful view, but not a short walk.

Nice walking route, a lot of climbing but in the end doable. Once you get to the top, you have a fantastic view and it is well worth the walk.

Beautiful lake above where you can swim (Venetjønn). Lots of roots on the paths, but that makes it feel like climbing a gigantic tree.
Tip: you have to pay for parking, but this is only possible via Vipps. If you live outside Scandinavia, these apps are unfortunately not available. We asked a Norwegian hiker to pay for us (because the sign must be passed on) and simply gave her 4.5 euros in cash). I have no idea if there are many checks there. There is nothing but forest, a sign with a map and a parking lot.
No catering.
