Climbing Section with Safety Chain

Highlight • Climb

It gets a bit tricky here, a chain helps you get through. If you slip, you'll end up in the lake!

Beach on Ågvatnet Lake

Highlight • Beach

It wasn't suitable for swimming during our visit. The beach was small, and the lake was very full from the meltwater and the rain of the last few days. But I can imagine it being there in the summer.

The start was at 11°, rain and a strong wind (~50 km/h from the west). At the end there was even sunshine.

A bit challenging in places.

I have never done a full-blown mountain tour around a lake. The terrain is very demanding and, given the current wetness, sometimes difficult to assess. There are lots of small and large streams to cross. The path is mostly muddy and you have to look for the supporting parts or stones. Good, high and waterproof shoes are a must.
