Røafjellet (589 m) in Fusa

At the start you will see a sign marked 'Røafjellet'. Follow the paved road to the left up the hill.

Walk through the farmer's yard and around the bend. At the garage, go right through the gate. Follow the tractor road across the pasture to a large tool shed on the right. Here, a path goes left through the forest, or you can follow the tractor road around. At the end of the tractor road, the walk turns onto a path. It is marked with red paint on trees and rocks all the way.

Most of the hike goes through forest and over marshes. There is a steady climb all the way and some steep sections. The last part of the hike goes through open mountain scenery with nice views in all directions.

At the top there is a large cairn and mailbox with a book. Enjoy the view over the Sævareidsfjorden to the south. There is also a 360 degree panoramic view of all nearby mountains in Fusa.

Go back the same way.

There are many marshy parts so we recommend shoes that go above the ankle. We did this hike in winter with frost on the ground, which made it easy to cross the marshes.

Have a good trip!
