Eidsbugarden - Utladalen - Vetti

Route info

Description

From Fondsbu/Eidsbugarden you begin walking on the road some meters before you turn to the right and follow the easy path. Flat terrain when you pass Kvitevatnet and Uradalsvatnet. In the middle of Uradalsvatnet it's time to take left and then downhill into Fleskedalen.

Fleskedalen is a lasting valley but with nice views towards Hurrungane. Shortly after the hut in Fleskedalen the vegetation will change to forest in the hills down to Vettismorki. Here you meet an open landscape with marshes. You're now not far away from Vettisfossen. A last steep hill and then you reach Vetti.

Hiking time

8 hours

Worth to know

Around Kvitevatnet and in Fleskedalen you'll have some good tent places.

Don't forget Vettisfossen. A huge waterfall, in fact Norwegians highest in free fall.
