About the hike
Embark on the Narekollen cultural trail, a scenic one-hour walk from Nordagutu "Torget" at the station, covering approximately 3.6 km to the plain at Nordvollstulen. The route primarily follows well-maintained forest roads, with a slightly hilly terrain in the final stretch.
For a convenient starting point, consider the sports facility, offering ample parking. Along the route, explore four information boards with maps. Pass by the smallholding, Langås, and discover alternative access routes indicated on the map board at "Torget." Visit the station's waiting room for relevant photos and tour information.
Extend your hiking possibilities to Narefjell and Svanstul, both featuring medium-heavy hikes with steep ascents through forest terrain. The ski jump below Narefjell, once among the world's largest, offers a glimpse into historical sports. Learn more about it in the recently published book available at Akademika and Åheim landhandel.
Maps with information about homesteads, the ski jump, and the sports team are available for exploration.
