From here you go back towards the top of the alpine resort and follow the ridge further east. You have to go down into a dump before it goes up towards Flæfjellet. There is a path and the terrain is open. Follow the path up the scarp to the puddle and then go south-east. You will see the mini cairn on Flæfjellet on the left. From the cairn you go north-east.
