Varguraksla Circular Trail
Ålesund
This trail covers various types of terrain. It starts along a gravel road, continues through a dense mixed forest, and takes you up to the flat-topped summit of Varguraksla. Keep following the mountain ridge down to Syltesetra and then the gravel road back to the starting point.
Follow the gravel road towards Måslia. Once the road flattens out, you will see waymarks pointing to Varguraksla on your left-hand side. Walk across the marsh facing the edge of the forest. From here, a newly marked path takes you through a dense mixed forest which opens up as the path turns towards the ridge of the mountain. The path follows the edge quite closely here, but you have enough space on your right if you feel uncomfortable walking too close to the steep mountainside. The ridge is wide and safe to walk on. The flat mountaintop offers plenty of space to enjoy the fantastic view.
Park on Ørskogfjellet. The trail is marked from the toilet building at the car park.
