Beihovdløypa
At Holdeskaret, you have two trails: Beihovdløypa and Systerskarløypa. Beihovdløypa can be hiked either as a circular route or only up and down to Flævasshytta, which is located by the Flævass dam. Flævasshytta is a mountain lodge with simple refreshments that is open during the high season in spring.

The Beihovdløypa loop itself is 7.1 km, while from the parking areas in Hølleskaret you can estimate the total hike to be 9-10 km.

The trail can also be accessed via cross-country ski tracks from Skigaarden.

See groomed trails at loyper.net.

Bringing the dog? Remember that your dog should not bother others. During Christmas, winter, and Easter holidays there is leash requirement in all machine-prepared trails in Hemsedal. On ski arenas and in valley & forest trails from Gravset in the east to Feten and Lio in the west, leash requirement applies all season. Thank you for cleaning up after your dog.
