Route description 15 km:

A loop that connects 2 ridges

15 km and 1000 meters of elevation gain

Ridge #1 Storaksla: 624 m.a.s. Nice and flowy trail that takes you through the forest and up to the tree line.

Aid stadion #1 Kavlisætra: 490 m.a.s. After 6,5 km and 500 meters of elevation gain.

Ridge #2 Steinberget: 981 m.a.s. After a brutal and steep off trail climb you get a nice view of the fjord. The terrain here is a little more alpine. You get a nice trail going slightly downhill. But don't get too caught up in the view. Suddenly the route turns right down a very technical downhill. After the downhill 15 km turns left on a big trail that will take you down to the finish.
