A stable spell of weather during the week that my sister was visiting meant that we really had to get out onto another mountain and make the most of the beautiful sunshine and cloudless skies. Took the 45 minute drive down through Lavangsdalen to Skogvoll and parked up just close to the start of the footpath. Brilliant views out over Balsfjord all the way up through the forest and out onto the grass. Quite a lot of other hikers out on this nice day. Got stunning views out to the Lyngen Alps after getting onto the upper section of the mountain. Quite steep in places but no scrambling was needed, which was good because my sister didn't like too much exposure! Path was easy to follow, and the view to Andersdaltinden, Svartnestinden and Sultindan were very impressive too. Had a spot of lunch at the top, signed the book and then began our way back down the same route. Back at the car by 1600. Another fabulous trip. Can't think why I had not spent much time hiking in Norway before this!
