Author's advice
If desired, you can combine this route with a walk to Rjukandefossen, where you can see a powerful waterfall and possibly swim a bit below.
Turn-by-turn directions
From the center, cross the river Hemsila on the bridge by Peppes and the pharmacy. Keep right over the bridge. Follow the bike path to Skiheisvegen. Turn right down toward Mølla and immediately left onto Holdeskarsvegen. After a short time, the pedestrian and bike path to Tuv goes out to the right. This follows the river upstream. At the end of the road there is a bridge over the river and you cycle through the residential area to Tuv. At Tuv, take Hustadvegen uphill. Eventually, you come to the gravel road Kongevegen. Around the highest point on the route is the start of the gravel road up to Høllekølten. So if you want, you can take a detour up there and enjoy the view before rolling down again to Hulbakvegen, which follows to Rv52 and then follows the pedestrian and bike path back to the center. Family-friendly route. Not suitable for bike trailers.
