The steep and demanding ascend up the old farmers' route Rimstigen rewards the hiker with stunning views over the Nærøyfjord. Besides the views, the trail is great as well: steep, stony and slippery it takes full attention to hike up and down, but it will be all worth the effort!

Hiking

Must be a beautiful hike but be aware that during springtime there might be avalanches. I went there in the end of april and an avalanche had already destroyed most of the path going up. I stopped the hike but later I saw another avalanche coming down that could have perfectly hit anybody trying to get up. Don't underestimate this danger planning your trip (and maybe rather go in June)!
