Description


A tough but enjoyable climb to the “Top of the Sky” (Himmeltindan). You can start from the beautiful beach of Haukland with its white sand and turquoise waves before climbing the old track that used to give access to the village of Utakleiv before the tunnel was built in the 20th century.
