Description
This is the easiest hike to get high up in the mountains as you can "cheat start" by taking the chairlift up. On the top, you can see the entire Hemsedal valley, surrounding mountains and lakes.
At the chairlift top, there is a cafe called Fjellkafeen which is where you start your hike. You follow well-marked trails both on and off the ski track.
When the chairlift is running, Fjellkafeen cafe is open for guests which means you don't have to worry about bringing your own lunch or hot drink.
If the chairlift is closed you have some alternative routes that will take a bit longer but it's still worth it!
- Start at the bottom of the ski resort and hike up along the ski slope Turisten, nr 11, to Fjellkafeen and there you can join in on the original trail.
- You can also follow Holdeskarveien from SkiStar Alpin Lodge towards Skigaarden and then switch to ski slope nr 11.
- You can start in Hemsedal centre and walk the ski slope sentrumsløypa up.
