About Veslefjellet
Veslefjellet is not very high, but you get a fantastic view in all directions in an open mountain terrain.
Getting there
Drive by car towards Forrestadsetra, and park on the right side at a information blackboard, about 100 meters before Forrestadsetra.
Trail description
Start the walk by going down to the barrier and over the bridge. Here you continue on foot all the way to the top of the dirt road. Then follow a trail past a solitary hut where you either select the trail up to the top of Veslefjellet (1,034 meter about sea level), or follow the trail to the left through light birch forest to the two new tourist cabins for DNT on Veslefjell. You then continue on the path over the top, down to the fine cabin plant Jonstølen, on the south side of Veslefjell. You can now choose to walk in to Dørfallet, or follow the signs back to Forrestadseter. The whole trip is in open and easy terrain.
