Because
of low clouds at Rjukan, I take an evening tour to Haglebu instead.
The car is parked at Haglebu camping, with Haglebunatten, 1278m, in the
background. At least it's free from clouds. I start walking at 17.00.
|
The camping is at 800m, so the
walk is in the woods to begin with. At 950m there are only dwarf birch
and the view gets better. |

The
path could feel a little airy here, if you are afraid of heights, with
a steep
drop at the side. But it's wide, and goes in a natural, very nice
diagonal uphill. |
At
about 1000m I reach the treeline and all forest ends. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
lake Snøfonntjänn at a little more than 1000m.
|
Some 150 altitude meters left
to the fortopp. Easy to walk, as you can see. |

The lower summit, with its 1265m, provides
the best view. Here is the camping
and Haglebu below. |
A small mountain lake, between the fortopp
and the main peak. Here is the lower summit behind to the left. |

The
cairn on the main summit, 1278m. Right now I'm happy I didn't choose a
higher mountain, the cloudbase is just a few meters over my head. When
the
weather is bad, climb lower peaks... |
But
it's a nice peak to climb. Furthermore, now a start getting in shape.
I'm back at the camping at 19.00, only two hours after I started
climbing. Here is the lower summit in the background, the picture taken
to the northeast.
