Hike to Hålandsnipa, Høyanger

Go hiking to Hålandsnipa in Høyanger - panoramic view

The trip starts from the barrier at Strupen. Further on, you follow the winding road up into the hill, already here there is a great view of Høyanger. Follow the gravel road further into Breidalen until you find a sign marked Hålandsnipa at the bottom of the valley. You turn to the left in the terrain and follow the red markings towards the cabins in the valley, after which the climb starts up towards the ridge. The path is winding and you have two alternatives, it can also be steep in some places.

Up on the crest, you just have to follow the path beyond and further up. You pass the masts and follow a new climb up to the top itself, here there is also a small cairn and you have a good view of the surrounding mountains, e.g. towards Eriksdalen and Skardfjell. Take the trip down to the viewpoint and then feel the terrain downwards until the view finally reveals itself. Here it is great to take a break and enjoy the food and the view. Return is the same way back.
