During the Easter holiday we did a hike to a peak to a mountain called Kopparfjellet. The hike is around 10 km and go mainly upwards with some flat areas on the way up. We used around 2,5 hours up to the highest point. The weather was great, almost no wind and no reason to hurry.

From the parking the trail go up and behind this part of the mountain area.

When the first part is done the terrain is not so steep...

From the top of the slope we can see the goal, the highest point of Kopparfjellet.
From here and up we have a nice view to the surrounding mountains.

Something to eat and drink, and a rest is important.

Skiing downhill is easy and fun, just relax and enjoy the view.

So much snow during the Easter holidays? Oh, we had 25 degrees in The Netherlands :) It was very hot and people were even swimming in the lakes even though water was still freezing cold :)

It looks like you had a great day! The views are amazing and the weather was stunning. How does your dog feel about this cold? I'm not sure if dogs can get a flu or something like this :)

Have a lovely rest of the weekend!

Thank you very much. Only my dog Nero have started the bathing season here north. 😊 Nero manage temperatures down to minus 10 -15 minus very good is. On this hike it was nice in the sun. Maybe 3-4 minus in the shadow. Have a great evening!

I have been skiing only once or twice - guess I'll have to stick to walking trails :-)

Your hike is such a contrast from mine, i nearly got bit by mosquitoes all the way

I am glad the mosquitoes not arrive until the middle of June. Fun to see different type of nature.
