Creator's Key Takeaways

The Fred Vang bridges, two in total, are a must-see site along the way.

For those that desire amazing views, this loop or just writen is the hike for you.

We recommend picking just one of these hikes and not doing both unless you just can't miss out on both of them.

Highly recommend you do this hike that you choose either right in the mountain to climb up or you choose to go to the beach because they equally have their own challenges.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Pack rain boots for beach walking and sand toys if you have kids.
✓Trekking poles are essential for the hike.
✓If you're doing the combined hike, use the best parking lot with a bathroom and overnight parking.
✓For better lighting, go to Kvalvika Beach in the morning rather than later in the day.
