Back to the overview map

At an elevation of 1209 metres, Nos is the highest summit, offering splendid views of Hovden and the
surrounding mountains to the east and west. The ascent is on a cart road and a path. Follow the cart road
to above the treeline, turn left onto a blue-marked path which takes you to the summit. Normal hiking time
to the summit is around two hours, and a good hour back. You may also return on the service road through
Hovden Alpinsenter. An easier option is to take the express chairlift to Nos from Hovden Alpinsenter.
The summit awaits you with a stone cairn and a guest book. Feel free to add your name and a greeting.
If you fancy a longer hike after reaching the viewpoint at Nos, you may follow the blue-marked trail passing
Stølskardnuten. After 2,5 km you reach the T-marked trail from Hovden to the DNT cabin Sloaros.
