SELVIKSTAKKEN
Selvikstakken is het mooiste uitkijkpunt ten westen van de Lysefjord. De wandeling voert langs verschillende beklimmingen en afdalingen in heuvelachtig terrein. In ruil daarvoor word je beloond met fantastische uitzichten op de monding van de Lysefjord, de Høgsfjord en de Frafjord.
We can warmly recommend to hike Selvikstakken (597 masl). The name of this peak tells us it has a more distinct shape compared to its neighboring mountain tops.
Follow “Lyseveien” which is a simple tractor road. Turn right after 1600 meter, just north of Blommetjørna. Follow the marked trail to a small pond south of Litle Løypedalstjørna. The shortest and easiest way is to continue on the west side of Løypedalstjørna. If you want to hike the round trip, continue eastwards until you hit the outlet of Rasmustjørna. Here, you cross the stream and continue to the north (the trail to the east leads to Bynuten). Having crossed the stream, you’ll ascent towards Selvikstakken’s neighboring peak Serifjellet, which is actually 1 meter higher, but does not have the same great views.
Measured in a straight line, it is not far to hike to Selvikstakken, but first you have to descend steeply to a saddle between the two peaks. The remaining climb is hard, but the views from the top are definitely worth it! The views stretch from Frafjord to the south, to the Ryfylke mountains in the north. On the opposite side of the Høgsfjord, at Forsand, you can see the impressive Mount Uburen.
At the top, you can take a well-deserved break before starting the return loop. Hike down to the saddle between Selvikstakken (597 masl) and Serifjellet (598 masl) again, but continue west/down. Follow the west side of Løypedalstjørna to the tractor road. An alternative round trip is to continue west and hike up to Selvikstølen to return on the tractor road all the way back to the parking lot. It is easier to walk.
If you choose the round trip, note that it is not well marked. We recommend that you bring a map/compass. This trip often takes longer than planned. Bring a flashlight, in case it gets dark during your return.
