Tortberga

Highlight • Summit

Tortberga (610 m) is a rocky summit on the eastern side of Vassfjellet, offering wide views across the forests of Melhus, the Gauldalen valley and the surrounding hills. Although lower than Vassfjellet itself, its open summit makes it a rewarding viewpoint and a worthwhile stop along the ridge.

There is a nice place for a break directly above the tree line. From here you have a great view towards Trondheim.

Steep and equipped section

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The path leads steeply through the forest up the mountain flank. At one point there are even ropes for protection. What fun!
