Itinerary description

Combines the Maelen red dot route (magnificent views) with the Herand kulturstien. Way back along the lakeside and the Maelsvegen (with a lot of special art landmarks combined with great views). More paved roads on the way back but not too long on the busy road.
If you stay at the Treetophytte, you can start from there (green starting point), otherwise park your car at the crossroads above the Maelen village (red end point) and start from there.
Also possible to walk from Herand (see the waypoint there) but then it might be better to walk in reverse direction.
Since the route has the form of an 8 you could do only either half of it, but you would miss half of the fun!
