Description

Livarden is 683 m. above sea level and is the sixth highest mountain in Bergen municipality. The hike begins on a gravel road past some private houses and then continues on a tractor road. Follow the road to the left up a steep hill (signposted Livarden) towards Rambjørgvatnet. Walk until the road ends. Here there is a bench with a view of Livarden. Then the hike continues on a path. There are alternating marshy and steep sections, so you should wear good shoes. Follow the cairn line all the way to the top cairn (683 m. above sea level).

Up here you get a 360-degree panoramic view, with views towards Bergen south and Ulriken can be glimpsed in the Distance . You can see Skådalsnipa and Arnanipa. Slettegga, Austlifjell and Hausdalshorga spreading across Dyrdalen. Gullfjellet (North Pole) and Søre Gullfjellstoppen (South Pole) are visible in the background. Svenningen, Søtafjellet and Møsnuken are visible to the south.
