Starting Point

The tour starts at the car park at Brenna. (see pictures)

Directions

Follow road 820 (Bøveien) eastwards from Bø/Vinje towards Steine. (see map) At Steine, turn left onto Brennaveien. (see pictures) After about 40 metres, Brennaveien turns to the right. It is approximately 700 meters from the Bøveien/Brennaveien junction to the car park.

Tour description

At the start, you follow the old church road to Bø church. Then you follow a clear path/forest road further up to Losjehytta.

There is a gently rising terrain along a clear path from the Losjehytta to the foot of the mountain. The last part up to the top is quite steep and heavy. Great view i.a. towards Hadseløya and the Lofoten mountains. Møysalen can be seen to the southeast.

Highlights of the trip

This is a trip that can offer a wonderful view, and a great nature experience, mostly the whole trip.

It is a clear and easy terrain to walk in, and the paths are good and very clear.

And of course it is very nice to visit both the Losjehytta and the Vetten-bua. Especially if the weather is a bit bad.

Difficulty and time use

This is a moderately difficult hike. From the car park to Vetten, it is approx. 4 km. It is about 450 meters in height from the car park to the top of Vetten. Based on this, it should theoretically take approx. 2 hours and 20 minutes to walk this trip. Most people will probably be able to walk at a time below this. But there is nothing to stop you from taking it easy, and feel free to take a break at the Losjehytta.
