Murkelie – Bjødnhovd
About
This tour follows groomed tracks. Please check the latest grooming status at www.skisporet.no
From the E16, exit by the Ulnes church and follow the signs towards Panoramavegen until Vaset. Park at Sekskanten Kro & Pub, on the right-hand side after the bridge.
The tracks are frequently groomed for both classical and free style.
Follow the yellow track along the southern side of Lake Vasetvatnet past Vasetstølen (alternative winter parking site in here after 1.6 km). Continue along the lake and slightly uphill to the next track crossing (for a shorter trip, turn left here towards Kvålestølen and back to Vaset, a 9 km circuit in total). Keep straight ahead in the crossing, continuing towards Murkelie for another 800 m. Turn left here towards Bjødnhøvd. Now the trail climbs to almost 1000 m.a.s.l. After 5 km the red track towards Krististølen exits to the right, but you keep straight ahead towards Kvålestølen and return to Vaset in a long downhill run.
