ake highway FV17 in Bindal municipality and stop at the rest area at Hornelva River. The rest area is located about 100 metres south of Lysfjordvatnet Lake (92 metres above sea level), and the distance to the starting area at Svaberget Camping is about 3 km.
The trail goes up a wooded hillside to the left of Hornelva River. After passing some small marsh areas, we come to a small lake. This is a nice spot to have a rest before moving along, as well as a nice place to swim on the return trip if the weather and temperature permit this. We veer southward from the lake and follow the marked trail up and over to the next plateau.
Our route extends 2 km southeast on the plateau along the “foot” of the Heilhornet Mountain at an elevation of 500-600 feet. We follow the edge west a few hundred metres to the peak. The edge is relatively easy to walk, but can be challenging for people dealing with fear of heights.
The trip is demanding for children and also requires sure-footed dog paws.
