Hiking in Evje and Hornnes provides you with a lot of opportunities, including the summit Bertesknaben, 652 m.a.s.l. Start by driving to Flatebygd, from where you take the road to Nordbo. There is a car park at the end of this road. The blue-marked hiking path is approx. 3 kilometres long. The first part is on a tractor road, the last part on a trail and through a bog. The final section leading up to the summit is somewhat steep. In case of recent rainfall, we recommend waterproof footwear.
