Mountain hike to Erdalsvarden (458 m) from Arna

Erdalsvarden - A fantastic view of southern Arna!

Erdalsvarden is a viewpoint that provides a great view of the southern part of Arna, including Grimen, Brattland and Espeland.

This route starts at the farms Øvre and Nedre Brattland. From the parking lot by the gravel area, go to Brattlandsvegen and follow it down the hill to the left. At the bottom of the hill you will find a sign, and the path starts on the right. Follow the path through the gate and up through the forest until you reach another gate. Now you enter a forest road. Follow the forest road that winds up the mountainside past pastures.

A little way up the slope you will come to a large crossroads with many signs. Here you should go right, signposted 'Ulriken'. Continue on the new path up through the forest and then through a spruce forest.

Further up the slope you go through the gate with the sign 'Ulriken'. Follow the path across the open bog to the Next crossroads. Here you should go left; the path on the right leads up towards the plateau. Continue on the path that turns southwest. Soon you will come out of the forest and get a fantastic view. Follow the path further until you reach Erdalsvarden.

Return the same way! 🌲
