Trips from Våhaug

600 m above Herand, you come to the end of a mountain road and a parking lot with the most amazing view. This place is Våhaug. From Våhaug, we can choose from many marked paths (and some unmarked) to experience the Hardanger mountains.

Easy: Grimenuten and/or Såta (2-3 hrs). We follow the marked path towards Vatnasetenuten, taking an unmarked path up to Grimenuten. We go back down and cross over a creek before venturing up towards Såta. We meet the marked path to Såta. Back using the marked path.

Medium: Tostøl – 10 km (4-5 hrs) (easy, but long walk)

The path is easy, with a few short inclines. Steppingstones have been laid out in the muddy parts. After about 1 hour, we reach the top of Saurdalen. We shortly arrive at the mountain cabins at Samdalsstølen with the lake Viddalsvatnet below. Tostøl is about half an hour further on.

Hard: Vatnasetenuten – 9 km round trip (4-5 hrs)

This is a round-trip, starting easy along the lakes. Steep up-climb to the top with spectacular views. Marked path.

To ensure our customers have the best experience, we only offer private tours that are tailored to your group's wishes, needs and fitness.

Your guide speaks English.
