Overview
From the parking lot at the end of the forest road, you follow a clear path along the river through the Åkradalen Valley. As you walk through the valley you will pass ”Urene”, where the path winds between giant rocks. At the end of the valley, there is a small wooden bridge that crosses the river before Stølsbrekko. On the mountain side, you will find Åkrastølen with its three farm houses. This hike explores nature, taking you to streams and rivers, large rocks and the open mountain farm meadow.
