Via Ferrata Hylling

Hyling is a Via Ferrata route located in the large rock wall north of Åkrafjorden Nature. To get to the entrance follow the same road as to Kyrkjeveggen, but continue on the forest road a little further. The path through the rocks is marked. From the entrance and up to Øysteinskår, there is a fairly steep Via Ferrata trail with bolted steps. When one climbs into Øysteinskår, one follows the bolted cable over the natural mountain shelves. The shelves go up and down slightly and range between 250 and 300 meters above sea level. When you reach the western end of Indre Fjæraholet there are bolted steps up to Gaupeskår. Where the Hylling trail meets Kyrkjeveggen, one can choose to follow Via Ferrata Kyrkjeveggen up to Topphylla, if one wants a painfully long walk. If not, one follows the marked path down to the shore. The round trip is about 4.5 km long, with 1700 meters of bolted trail. If you want to follow Kyrkjeveggen to the top, the whole round trip is about 8 km long, with 2.2 km of bolted trail.
