The trail at a glance

This straightforward trail follows a farm road and a path throughout its final section. There may be wet patches along the path at times. Gamle Lisetsætra is a summer mountain farm that lies right at the tree line with a wonderful view to the west. It is beautifully located on the hilltop overlooking the village and Storfjorden. This could be a nice evening hike or a starting point for another hike to Mount Snaufjellet.

Route description

Follow the farm road that goes up from Giskemosaga to the new mountain farm, Lisetsætra. Keep to the right at all road crossings. The turn to Amdamsætra is signposted. Once you reach the farmhouses in Lisetsætra, walk up the hillside to the left and you will reach the path. During high water periods, there may be wet patches along the path and it may be difficult to cross the Øyagrova River without getting wet feet.

Access and parking

Turn off from County Road 103 (FV103) near Giskemo on the southern side of the bridge over the Ørskogelva River. Follow the road to Giskemosaga and the timber stacking area. You will see a sign for Lisetsætra and other destinations. Park your car along Giskemosaga Road.
