The hike starts form the parking at Blåfjellsvegen. The road is private and there is a small fee to drive on it (40 NOK in 2020). The hike in its self is very little strenuous. The first half of the hike follows a forest road, and the second half follows a path up the hill. Be aware that the path is very muddy, so waterproof hiking boots are recommended. Be careful when stepping onto the ledge, the hillside is very steep.
