About

The hike starts at the information board. 20 m further on you can find the hiking sign marking the route to Jonahorn. The route follows the base of a rock wall. You will shortly reach some steps which have been built to assist you up the rock. The hike then continues easily through the woods, on a good and dry path all the way up to Jonahorn. The final incline is a bit steep. Watch your step here; there are some bare tree roots in the path which can be slippery. Just before the top there is a good view down towards Selsvik and a view of the fjord from the top.

Season: May – October/November.

Tips from locals

Bring food, drinking water and windproof clothing. We advise you to use hiking boots or lighter walking shoes. We recommend that you bring a map of the area and a compass, or a GPS. Good cell phone signals covering the whole hike. Dogs must be kept (by law) on a leash at all times between April 1 and August 20. Open fire is prohibited in the hills and woods between April 15 and September 15. You are free to walk anywhere in the hills and mountains. Take care of the nature and show special consideration to all wildlife. Please do not litter.
