Map and information

From the roundabout in the center of Lom National Park Village, go 150 meters east along highway 15. Before you reach Fossheim Hotel, take to the right and go up the Ulstadvegen. In the middle of a u-swing the path turns to the field. The path then goes straight up the field and to the fenced pasture. Turn right in the path fork to follow the path which passes the tree line and goes further to Skutlan and Læshøe. Now you are at the highest point of the route (1070 m.a.s.l).

From Skutlan, where the path forks, you can proceed to Læshø or route against Myrskardet. The path towards Soleggen runs in the eastern direction, south of the summit itself, to the summer farm Stymme. Follow the farm road further to Soleggen. In about 10 min one can reach a place where the trail splits. Gentle slope down to the dam at the lake Ausa. Go around the lake on the right side and up a hill until the path bifurcates again and leads you to Læshø.

The path is well marked all the way.
