22. Pineskår - Gullbergnotten

( Information in English? Look below the Norwegian information )

Skildring av tur

Turen går i Gullbergnotten naturreservat og for det meste i tørt terreng. Første halvdel av turen går du i lauvskog, og stien er tildels bratt og krevjande. To plassar er det montert stigtrinn i fjell. Etterkvart flatar terrenget litt av og skogen opnar seg. Stien går vidare i furuskog på lyng og snaufjell til Gullbergnotten. Svært god utsikt til Jondal sentrum og ut fjorden. Her kan du også gå vidare på merka rute til Selsvik.

Råd for turen

- Ta med mat, drikke og vindtette klede.
- Du bør ha joggesko eller fjellstøvlar.
- Mobildekning er god på heile turen.
- Vi anbefaler kart og kompass, ev. GPS.
- Det er bandtvang 1. april – 20. august.
- Det er forbode med open eld i reservatet.
- Til fots kan du ferdast fritt i utmark, men ver varsam og ta omsyn til dyr og fuglar, og til naturen elles. Ikkje kast søppel.

Starting point/parking:

Take road 550 to the north from Jondal centre. After 1.4 km you arrive at a short tunnel (pedestrians are allowed to pass through this tunnel). Pineskår is immediately after the tunnel. There is parking space on the left hand (seaside) of the road. Please do not obstruct the gates for the waste disposal plant. On the opposite side of the road, you can find the information board and the hiking sign, marking the route to Gullbergnotten. Parking at own risk.

Description of the hike:

The hike, which is mainly in dry terrain, takes you into the Gullbergnotten nature reserve. The first half of the hike goes through the woods on a steep and sometimes demanding track. Assisting steps have been made some places. After a while the track flattens out and the woods opens. The path continues through pine forest, heather, and bare rock up to Gullbergnotten. Superb view of the village of Jondal and the fjord.

You can choose to continue north on marked tour to Selsvik, or return to Pineskår.

Season:

May – October/November.
