We
arrive at Hemsedal towards evening, and go for an evening hike before
the
day ends. The car is parked at the lake Vavatn, altitude 1150m.
|
A small
lake above 1200m. This area is beautiful and accessible. We ascent the
slopes to the right towards the first summit. |

The
summit cairn at point 1383m,
lower summit before main summit. |
A
look to the west. The lake Vavatn closest. |

To the northeast is Hydalsberget, that I
climbed in june this year. |
Its
only a short distance, 10-15min, fron point 1385m to the main summit at
1425m. A small cairn marks the summit. |

|
A
reindeer herd don't see us coming, until we are quite close. They look
at us to evaluate for about half a minute, then they quickly leave. |
Straight to the north is Ranastongi, 1900m,
with its flat summit. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
To the
east and 500 altitude meters below is Hydalen. The evening sun can
still
reach it. |
This
is a beautiful area, easy accessible and without any tecnichal
difficulties. The hike can be prolonged to Hydalsbergi, 1594m. We
choose to turn back here, giving us 300+ altitude meters and about 2h
walking. Perfect for an evening when you have some time to spare. |
