I have done 36 of the ”60 toppar” project so far. #37 will be special – it’s the first one I will do on skis! The nights are still insanely cold. It was -27°C this morning so I was in no hurry at all to leave. The days are very long, so there’s no need…

Hamrafjället is another quick peak that you can do after work when the sun sets just after 7pm. I also love the view towards north with all the lakes, although today I didn’t feel like standing around and look at it. The wind was biting cold! The season is winding to its close… soon the…

You know how much I love hiking, but this week I’ve had this enormous longing to be out and about, even I’m surprised. It could be mosquito related though – there are none. We’ve already had night frost and it’s not that warm during the day either. Gloves are a must-have. In other words, it’s…

The main attraction of our little vacation is the Romsdalseggen hike. The best (and most popular) option is to take a bus from Åndalsnes to Venjesdalen, so you can hike back to Åndalsnes where the trail finishes right next to the parking lot where we left the car. Very practical! When you hit the trail,…

Roaldstöten is a strange looking small peak next to Blåstöten. I’ve wanted to summit it for a while now, mostly because I’ve wanted to see what it looks like up close. But in the long term, I also want to summit all the named peaks in the Anåfjället massif, and now I have two left…

The plan was for the guides to check out the weather at 4am and then wake us up if it looked good. I woke up long before that and saw how it was flashing outside – it was a no-brainer that we wouldn’t be going out early as scheduled, no way the guides would risk…

Since I got my new mountainbike, I’ve been wanting to do a bike & hike trip. Rödsjövålen was a good candidate for that, there’s a double-track road from Backvallsvägen to Östvallen, where you continue on foot to get to the top of Rödsjövålen. 17 km by bike, 8 km by foot (return trip). No problems, I…

I went hiking for a change. The goal was to do two peaks today, Rutstöten (1098m) and Gråhöjden (1192m). They are in the same direction and so close together that it would be wasteful to only do one of the peaks at a time. And in fact, had I not already done Volldalshöjden, it would…

So I finally did the long hike to Skarsfjället and back! I drove to Slättansvallen in Ramundberget, unloaded my MTB and biked (well, mostly – there were some bits where I had to walk/carry the bike) all the way to Tvärån. That’s about 9 km (return) that I didn’t have to walk, and I was…

I counted my ”60 toppar” peaks the other day and found to my astonishment that I already have 31 of them! And as of today, 32. I drove to Vauldalen just across the border and hiked to Gruvsjöfjället. It was a very easy hike because you can follow a road/quad trail almost to the top, and the altitude…
